Nit and I have a little cash from the Tax Return, and we were wondering what Headset/s would be best to purchase for online gaming.
I game via Skype, Nit does MMO Raids. What do the gamers on here use, and what do you recommend we get?

I use a full Sennhauser heaset at home, and ear buds (and my laptop's internal mic, much to the chagrin of most involved) while at work.
Honestly, there are many excellent headset models out right now that don't cost that much. Turtle Beach is a great brand, as is Sennhauser, and Logitech is pretty good too.

I use a logitech "neckband" gaming headset when I'm at home on the desktop.
When at work on the laptop, I just use a regular headset and the laptop mouse.
So, did one of you decide to upgrade your computing also?

I used to use a very nice Corsair set, but then the wiring shat itself depressingly quickly so I can't really recommend that. I really need to get around to returning that for a working set...
