now that every computer has a built-in mic i wonder if the kids these days even know about the "plug the headphones into the line in and speak into the left cup" i'm-too-cheap-for-a-microphone microphone trick. definitely recorded more than one video this way.

I've never heard of this. How bad did it sound?

I've tried it back in the days of Ventrilio, and the people I was talking to said it was so quiet that I was hard to understand.
