Re: [TenTec] Computer Headset Secured -- Now What?

I'd speculate these are from different manufactures and likely there is 
little to no quality control.  They didn't even come in a box or even a 
plastic bag and no paperwork, specifications, instructions or such.  They 
were just placed in a padded mailer.
