Pablo Martinez-Almeida writes "Skype has just announced full versions of its software for Mac OS X and for Linux. Now I'm only waiting for some conversations recording feature. (via Om Malik on broadband)"

Conversation recording feature already included!

You can tell an "IN SOVIET RUSSIA..." joke TO Russia! You might be killed after that, though.

Help me understand. It crashed, you can't hear the phone ring and it only draws 1/2 the screen and it's "great"???

Can I interest you in a "fantastic" used car?

[Stween]

I fail to see the worthiness of your post; you only wanted to shout about having a "girl". As if such things exist...

and using it to talk to my girl who has a Mac

That gave it away, you're obviously lying ;)

No, there are plenty of linux zealots like you out there. Even if you had the source you probably wouldn't understand a word of it.

If all 3 of you petition them, they might consider doing a port for BeOS. ;-)

Make that both of them. I'm finally giving up BeOS. I'm going to get one of those fancy new Amigas.

The last time I checked, there were concurrent flamewars on the Jabber mailing list about (a) whether "JabVOIPper" or "GNUJabVOIP" or "Elgilus" or "NotM$NetMeeting" would be a better name, and (b) which of twelve ugly GIMPed logos should be used.

Not lying... just a typo. He meant to say,

"and using it to talk to the girl on my Mac."

the big deal is that in this version... she talks back!

Re:What the hell?

[bobscealy]

It is true, there are "girls" out there to talk to. I regularly use Skype to talk to a girl I met online. Her name is Bruce. Her voice is just so husky from a throat infection. We are going to meet in real life one day real soon!

Re:What the hell?

[sessamoid]

Yeah, she has a Mac. =) I use Linux. (But mind you, I am building her a new PC pretty soon... hehe)

You're building her a new PC when she already uses a Mac? In that case, don't you mean your soon-to-be-former-girlfriend? :)

Hope they fix that in the next version ;)

I had a girlfriend once, but she was more maintenance than a Windows XP box, so I got rid of her.

Yes, Canada isn't part of the US.

Much like the rest of the blue states.
