Ms voip I just came across this old article: Microsoft Unveils VoIP Solution as Part of Desktop Communications: Upcoming release of Microsoft Office Communications Server aims to accelerate voice over Internet protocol adoption by enabling IT to extend existing telephony infrastructure.
Scanning through it sounds as though that Office already has VOIP capability built into it...somewhere. I have been going through the interfaces Office 2010 beta looking for anything that might be related, finding nothing. Does this still exist, or has it been discontinued? | My System Specs |

Okay, how about an amazing link(s). When I go though the options in the Start Menu for either of the things that you mentioned, they aren't there. How are they accessed...do they require additional downloads? | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number DIY OS W7x64 Pro, SuSe 12.1/** W7 x64 Pro, XP MCE CPU Phenom II 1090T w/Noctua NH-D14 /**4400+ X2 w/CM Hyper TX 3 Motherboard ASRock 890FX Deluxe 4/**A8N-SLI Memory 2 x 2GB Patriot PGS34g1600LLKA/**4x1GB Corsair VS Graphics Card EVGA GTX460 SC/**EVGA 8800GTS Sound Card Asus Xonar D2X/**Xonar D1 Monitor(s) Displays Acer X233H, Dell E152FPc /**LG M237-WD Screen Resolution 1920x1080 & 1024x768/**1980x1080 Keyboard Logitech Media USB/**Saitek Eclipse Mouse Cordless Trackman Wheel/**Ditto PSU CM RS600 w/ APC BX1000G/**Antec 500 TP w/ APC BX1000 Case HAF922/**Antec 1040IIB Cooling 3x200mm, 1x140 and 1x120mm/**5x80mm fans Hard Drives WDC 2TB, 1.5TB, 1TB, 500GB,Seagate 500GB , Maxtor 80GB /**500GB Seagate & WDC 1TB Black Internet Speed 3.3Mbps Other Info SB 560 5.1 w/ Sennheiser RS140/**Creative T20 speakers, Dvico FusionHDTV7 Gold RT, Cisco E3000, HP 5510V AIO, Linksys E3000, Belkin F5U237 hub and **F5D8055 adapter

Humm, I am not sure where they are by the link you posted or on MS web site. I attended a special invite (meaning if you have $599USD you can attend) web conference where they showed just how to do this. Let me look through my emails and see if there are links to all this. Edit: (I so forgot) the emails are in my work email. Currently I don't have access to them due to we took the network down for an upgrade. I will be down for a few hours. UGH! I will look tomorrow or Monday when I get to work. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell OP760 OS Windows 7 Enterprise (x64); Windows Server 2008 R2 (x64) Memory 8GB Monitor(s) Displays 2 Dell 19" LCD Screen Resolution 1280x1024 Keyboard Dell Mouse Dell Optical Internet Speed 40meg |

Hmm, I won't pretend that I read the articles of your links in detail, but scanning through the paragraphs, I get the impression that this is not practical, either in terms of the cost or the limited needs of an individual just wanting to place or receive calls via VOIP. It does appear to be designed for a business having much more complex needs. If I am correct, you have given me what I needed...enough to know that I shouldn't bother looking further.

You are completely correct. Cost and in a simple business less than 100 phones would never benefit from setting all this up. PC based PBX's are so cheap now-a-days that you can put a small business phone system in a flash. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell OP760 OS Windows 7 Enterprise (x64); Windows Server 2008 R2 (x64) Memory 8GB Monitor(s) Displays 2 Dell 19" LCD Screen Resolution 1280x1024 Keyboard Dell Mouse Dell Optical Internet Speed 40meg All times are GMT -5.
