First, let's set the record straight. Windows
2000 is NOT the next Windows 98! It IS the new Windows NT. Windows Millennium
will be the next Windows 98 and may be available later this year.
There
are a variety of free services available on the Web and as technology continues
to improve, so will the quality of the Internet. One area that has drastically
improved and should have the traditional long-distance telephone providers
"shaken' in their boots" is free phone calls.
Phonefree.com is just such
a service. Of course you will need a headset with a boom microphone and your
computer must have a sound card. Other than that, all you need to do is browse
to phonefree.com and install their product. You'll get FREE digital quality
sound calls direct from your PC to any phone in the United States (keep in mind
there are a number of factors that affect the quality of the sound including
the type of connection you have to the Net, your Internet provider, and the
transmission lines that connect you to your provider).
That's right, to
any PHONE in the U.S., not to just another PC. In addition, you'll get FREE PC
to PC calls anywhere in the world! How about integrated PC based voicemail? Add
video calling, video mail, file and photo transfer, and you've got a complete
package. Best of all, it's FREE, so what are you waiting for?
