Re: (Fwd) Re: Vikings upset Karmazin



There sure is. The companies I cover for the trade magazine I work for do,
from time to time, expect trade-press editors to log into Web-based
audio-visual presentations. Or they e-mail us PowerPoint presentations that
include audio. I also have a free voicemail service for my personal use that
I can access from work. It sends audio clips of phone messages as e-mail
attachments. It's very slick! Having a sound capability on a business
PC--including a microphone input as well as audio output--is more and more
becoming a requirement for business PCs. Just yesterday, I participated in a
company-sponsored press briefing and the presenter was really upset because
he had to talk to me on the phone. (I was absolutely grief-stricken for him
<g>.) Nowadays, all laptops have built-in speakers. My laptop has a
microphone input but no microphone. His laptop has a built-in microphone, so
he thought everybody's did.

I don't know, I don't even have a soundcard in my office computer.  I
can't
think of any business reason for having one.
