VoIP (voice over IP) is the technology that allows people to talk over
the internet (PC to PC talk). Is VoIP the only technology to achieve
this?

Can PC to Phone talk? For example, I dial some number in internet, and
it will call someone on the analog phone?

Please advise. Thanks!!

[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Technologies to allow people to call
from a computer to an anaolog phone (or the other way around use the
generic name 'VoIP' (Voice Over Internet Protocol). Not all of the
vendors of VoIP allow connections between internet and the telephone
network although most of them do that. PAT]
