Regarding headsets... when at home I don't need to use one. As long as the computer has a good microphone and speakers, there's no real need for a headset.

One thing I've noticed is that my iMac and Macbooks are fantastic in this regard - perfect sound and reception. I had the misfortune of using an HP Windows 10 laptop for a while for a client, and the microphone was dreadful - unless my mouth was within about 10 inches, nobody could hear me. It was the same with colleagues who also used the same type of laptop.
