I would like to create a variation on a phone answering machine
using my pc. There are several features I want it to have, but mainly 
I want my friends to be able to call and receive individual messages, 
selected by entering touchtone digits. So basically I need a pc-
controllable audio tape recorder, connected to both the pc and the phone,
which can quickly reach any point on the tape. I have to be able to 
record the messages, and the pc has to be able to "listen" to the calls.
Does anybody know if a cheap version of such a thing exists?

Thanks for any help,
