Cheapest is best--- 'noise canceling' type will result in EVERYone going "huh" every time you speak-- I have a very nice mic built into my headphones which I've disabled, using instead a $9.99 boom mic

Without a noise cancelling mic everyone was complaining about the background noises.

Anyway, last sunday I bought Sennheiser PC161 headphones with a mic. I've only tried the mic once but it sounds clear. I prefer to have mic attached to headphones due to my preferrance to use voice communications via headphones and every other audio through speakers. Though, the Pc161 has a superb audio over my previous cheapo headphones, a cheap logitech headset.

Same situation here - had a look on ebay and there's some VOIP stuff for under 5$... that's gotta be to good to be true right?

How do you do this?  I've been told (by Skuzzy) that this is not possible in AHII...
