DearWebby is actually Helmut Morscher, the CEO of Webby, inc.
Originally the "Tech Support Pits" were reports of the funniest tech support incidents, but over the years the
column gradually shifted to answering tech support questions put forward by the readers of the Dear
Webby Humor Letter.
This collection of computer and web advice was started partly because readers demanded an archive, and partly
because some questions were asked again and again. Each page has a different day's Tech Support Pits column.
Have FUN!

Tech Support Pits column from Dear Webby's Humor Letter of
08/06/05: Head Set or separate microphone?
Tech Support Pits:
From Mario===
Dear Webby
What is better for phone over the Internet, a headset
or a separate microphone and earphones?
Thanks
Mario
Dear Mario
If you want to sound like a DJ or if you are participating
in teleconferences, get a wireless lapel mike and a mike
pre-amplifier with graphic equalizer, and a set of noise
canceling cup type earphones.
At the opposite end of the quality spectrum is a headset
from the dollar store, complete with boom microphone and
a too short 3 foot cord.
A good compromise is $30 headset with boom mike,
and an additional cord extension. 6 wire cords are often
ridiculously overpriced and it pays to shop around for
those. Otherwise you could wind up paying more for the
extension cord than for the head set.
Have FUN!
Dear Webby
