Try OhPhoneX (http://xmeeting.sourceforge.net/) part of the Xmeeting project, which will interface and all ow you to call people running NetMeeting on the PC, which I believe is a free download from Mi¢ro$haft.

I've had one-way audio & video calls with it (built in text chat too) that seemed fine, but I wasn't on the receiving end of any audio.

There's also Mac2Phone which is a relatively cheap VOIP service you could try.

Good luck!

I know of two.

The first is KDX (http://www.haxial.com/products/kdx/) which is a shareware program that has as clunky interface but all in all works fine once you get it set up.

The second is iVisit (http://www.ivisit.com) which may be a little better on the interface but there is some costs involved for certain features but I don't remember what ones.

There are others options out there such as voice over IP and conferencing programs but all of them have at least some cost involved if not significant cost.

At the moment voice chat PC to Mac is just not very good here's to hoping Apple fixes this somehow.
