    Sorry about all the questions... last one for the day :p I have a T61, and bought a PC headset for it today. It plugs into the headphone jack and the microphone jack. Is there going to be anyway to have music playing through the laptop speakers, while being able to use the headset just for chatting?

    Just plug in the pink mic jack, but not the black headphone. Sound will output from your laptop speakers, but the headset mic will be used.

    Of course, by not plugging in the headphone jack, other people chatting will also be routed out the laptop speakers along with the music.

    I don't think there is any way to seperate the chat output from the music output.
