I only know about them what I've been able to gather from looking at their website just now, which isn't much. There isn't enough info there to be able to tell for sure whether they'd be any good for pc use or not. You'd have to ask them if there's any cabling arrangement that can allow the headsets to receive a stereo signal from a computer soundcard (with its 3.5mm in/outs) while also outputting the headset microphone's signal to the microphone input of the soundcard. It looks like the headphones and microphones themselves are capable of sending and receiving the signals, but there aren't enough tech specs to be certain of that either.
In terms of connectivity, it looks like it can be done, without the PTT unit, using dual downlead cables, if they can be made to both end with 3.5mm plugs (and can be extended, as they look a bit short). You might be able to use the PTT unit with the dual downlead setup too, if there's an adaptor to make the cable that would lead to your radio from the PTT unit end with a 3.5mm plug that can plug into your computer's microphone input instead. Looks too like it might be able to be done using one downlead cable (with an adaptor/splitter plugged on the end) if the signal coming from the game is mono not stereo and it shares the stereo downlead cable with the headset's microphone output (game in on one channel, then spread over two headphone speakers ?, microphone output on the other channel). Pricey setup though, when you add it all up, headset (w/gel earseals & cotton covers), PTT unit, radio. Could be 1k.
