Default How to talk to Mac using messaging

Hello all,

I have spent a great deal of time trying to use AOL's AIM messenger to speak
(vocally!) with a Mac OSX iChat user, only to read just now that it can't be
done under Win 98. Does anyone know of any other solutions for speaking to
Mac over Internet using my microphone?

Thank you very much in advance,

O.

This is governed by:
1. What kind of audio card or audio circuitry you have
2. and what software. Some sound-on-board software
includes microphone/voice e.g. SoundMAX, others
does not.
