Hi folks,

I was just wondering if anybody out there has tried to use an internet
phone type product and Diablo on battlenet at the same time.  The
point?  To be able to talk to the people you are playing with.

I suspect that the requirements on the CPU would be too hight but I
can't try this myself since I only have a half duplex sound card and a
14.4 modem.  To have a hope of working you would want a full duplex
sound card and a 28.8 modem.

Has anybody tried this?  Did it work?  If so what hardware did you
have.

I'm also considering buying a DSVD or ASVD modem but then these would
only work on modem play games and not battlenet games.

...Dean...
