I agree with Frank for the Yamaha CM500, for the price can't be beat.

But for Jennifer I would recommend a pair of noise - cancelling earbuds (no mic). I bought a new pair or Sennheiser CX280'S on amazon last year, under $50, but listed over $100. You should be able to find those or similar for under $50.

The Yamaha phones have been very popular for HF with the Elecraft crowd for a few years now.  May be a bit of overkill for a computer.   I'm not a big headset fan but when I use them I like them. Excellent communication audio.
