Yes

I can help you , talk any where in the world for free any time you want too.
It is even a free Program, all you will need, is someone willing to host a Team Speak server.
Team speak , is a utility used by online gamers to communicate back and forth.
The program is free, you just need someone willing to host a server.
You will need a Microphone which plugs into your PC tower.
And of course speakers so you have sound.
It is very easy to set up if I can do it any one can.

Just food for thought in case you wish to talk to someone on the other side of the planet that you've been dying to talk too.

skype is better for this type of thing and it's free.

I have both TS for gaming and Skype for 1 on 1.

and ventrilo for gaming also.

Not that I would know anything about online gaming innocent But there is also a system called ventrillo, and if you want to host your own server its only $4 a month for up to like 10 people at once.yay

Team Speak is a small Program that allows you to communicate verbally, via PC.
Ma Bell, and AT & T hate this program as they are losing money.
I will e mail any one the link who wants it, but there is really no need, just go to


teamspeak.com

and get it for yourself.



Charlie

PS:
I have done online gaming for years and this is what we use, very good sound quality

My Virtual online squad tried Skype and had too many problems with it, TS will use PC resources and cause fewer problems .

Oh and the best way to do it is to go to an electronic store, and buy a headset with a microphone (Logitech makes the best) and they usually run about $20
Just remember you will have to set it up so you push a button on your keyboard to talk so make sure its not one that you will use regularly if you are typing or what not.

I use Skype to talk to someone in the UK and have no problems, The sound quality is better then TS and no server to set up.

I had skype a couple years ago and wasn't to happy with it then but they've made a lot of improvements to it.

Now this is JMO.

Any of those Programs are awsome, we used TS for gaming as it doesn't use PC resources and won't cause frame rate dropage.

I have played several, currently play World of Warcraft, and we use mostly ventrilo but some use team speak, although I have never used Skype.

TEAMSPEAK.COM


Go take alook very simple to use, so is Ventrillo, but we dropped it when ever we got into a dogfight the sound would break up and communication went out the window.
We've tried all those programs and every time we come back to Team Speak.

I wouldn't use Skype for gaming as it's not really meant for that type of use.
