    You need headphones that plug into a 3.5mm jack. Many vendors sell headsets with one earphone and a microphone with dual 3.5mm jacks that plugs into the computer. Some newer ones my have a USB plug, but the 3.5mm set work perfectly well.

    You need headphones that will plug into your computer, a 3.5mm plug. You can get a headset, with one or two earcups and and the microphone for $20-$25 or so now. Many vendors are making Skype-enabled phones and headsets that use a USB port as well, so you have lots of options.
