About LinkBacksSo with the recent reformat of my computer and install of Windows 7, my monitor which has a built in microphone no longer works. I went to Dell.com and it had no driver updates for Windows 7 (only to Vista).
So...
I need to buy a headset.
I don't want to spend and arm and a leg. I'm a college student for crying out loud. But I want something that is affordable and of good quality.
In recommendations?

I bought a desktop mic which was like $15, then bought a stero headset which was $40. It is cheap and sounds great =).

If you want something really cheap...it should still be fine.
I got some cheap headset/mic in one thing for £5 and I've had no problems with it in a year, and the sound quality is all right too
Not exactly the most comfortable thing though, if that really bothers you.

Thanks everyone. I ended up buying a headset from logitech. Seems to work pretty well, at least for what I need it for. Once I get the funds, I may upgrade in the future.

I'm looking at getting a wireless headset, but I can only see that Skype sell them.
