I stand, well actually sit, corrected.

No - ones with lightweight tone arms, just like the others.
Successors to decks like the Garrard SP-25 or Pioner PL-12D.
After all, you need power to drive the turntable motor; it's
not really that difficult to build the pre-amp into the same
box as the turntable.
These became more common once audio systems were less likely
to provide a dedicated 'phono' input; a record deck that could
be plugged directly into an 'aux' input could still be used.

Yep, cheap one's with heavy tone arms. I though I covered that.

Should be a relatively simple matter of taking the output from the
turntable to and patching it to the aux. input on a sound card.
It won't work. You need a phono pre-amp, or a sound card that has one. A
few of them have an external phono pre-amp.
Not necessarily - some turntables have a preamp built in.
