In Response To: That was awesome. (Brian)

: Had fun talking... er, listening to you all. :-) I'm glad I didn't have a mic
: in that one -- in the middle of one game, my cat jumped up on the desk and
: knocked over a glass of water that spilled on everything. I'm sure no one
: would have wanted to hear THAT string of obscenities. :-)

: BTW, for the folks (like me) without microphones: you can still join in and
: hear what's going on -- just can't talk. I was causing some kind of
: feedback, though, and I don't know if it was because I didn't have a mic
: hooked up or something else. Shishka had me change some option
: ("Push-to-talk", I think? Shish?) that fixed it, so if you're
: going to try it without a mic, it'd probably be a good idea to change that
: option.

: Anyone have any recommendations for a good (but not uber-expensive) headset?
: I might as well get one when I replace my newly broken water-soaked mouse.

Heh. I spilled some Mountain Dew on myself right before I left... well, I needed to do a load of laundry, anyway.

I wouldn't be able to recommend any headsets, really... I'm just recycling mine from some crummy speech-recognition software.

I do remember bad experiences with cheap Plantronics headsets, though. After about half a year of use, the left earpiece died. We sent it in for replacement, and accidentally got two in the mail. Both of those suffered the exact same left-ear failure after a few months, too. Sooo... try to find an inexpensive non-Plantronics set. :-)
