I would like to ask: when using Skype I assume if one doesn't want to use a headset one could use a mike and the PC speakers. Is there a particularly good mike that I should consider? I'd like a mike that will pick up my voice if I am anywhere in the room.
Secondly, I assume that if I use the above setup the mike needs to be far away from the speakers? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of JOHN O CARVALHO Sent: Saturday, October 04, 2008 6:08 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] Getting started with Skype If you want to add me to your skype you can this way if you have any more questions you can call me on skype.
