There are several cake recipes that I want to try. But they all mention the regular oven conditions. While I would like to bake them in a microwave oven...How different is that?

when you bake a cake in the oven, it certainly needs more time than baking it in the microwave...i remember that i once baked cup cakes in the oven when i realized that i was out of gas...so simply, i baked them in the microwave for couple of minutes..and they were ready..!

Cakes baked in an oven have a better color and taste (in my opinion) that those cooked in a microwave.
Ovens heat from the outside in and give the outer crust some carmelization that adds both taste and texture.
You can not get that surface carmelization from microwave cookery. The batter heats too uniformly.
If you want a really good cake, use a conventional oven.
