I don't know if I mentioned this earlier, but have you considered a USB headset? I picked one up for $30 at Amazon and it sounds really good. I'm guessing of course, but you probably have a USB slot on the front face of your desktop so plugging and unplugging should be easy.

You're not "off" at all, although to try the microphone socket at the back of my tower would possibly mean I needed sighted help to pull the tower forward from under my desk without the wires at the back coming out, and also to locate the correct socket on the back of the machine for a microphone. I'll try both your suggestions early next year, although I sent the problem to this list to see if I could try and resolve it without sighted help, but it looks as if I can't.
