Picked up a Magic Jack at Walmart for $20.installed it on an old almost never used anymore HP/Compaq Pentium D / 4GB Ram, running Vista 32bit.installed in about 1 min. Had a little trouble registering it, Magic Jack didn't like the keybroad on my old computer and any time I would type the letter D the computer would go to sleep. Never had any problems with that keyboard before. Had a bunch of keyboards laying around, so installed another old USB keyboard and the problems was solved. Made several calls, local and long distance to both mobile and landline phones. Call quality was good. As good as most decent mobile units. Shut down and restarted the computer six or seven times, no problem. Unplugged and plugged in the Magic Jack several time and again no problem. I would not want to depend on the thing as my only phone and we have'nt had a landline phone in the house for 3 or 4 years, but now we do again. I don't know if anyone will ever use it, but hey the thing cost less
than a large pizza.
