| 246737 | 2004-06-22 04:36:00 | Yes, that's right, Its nice and easy to get going although I had to try a few times before it would connect... Its brilliant, up and running perfectly with a Win32 box on the other side of the room. Lag is about 500ms and this is on Woosh. Check it out: http://www.skype.com Does anybody else use it? Feel free to add: Chilling_Silence Cheers Chill. |

| 246738 | 2004-06-22 04:38:00 | Sorry, forgot to add my screenshot to compell all you who are thinking about it into downloading it: sal.neoburn.net Uses an average of 4KB/s for the voice convo :-) Chill. |

| 246740 | 2004-06-22 08:52:00 | Thanks for the link, Just put the little devil on for Win XP, it was straight forward enough, now I have to get Woosh and LINUX talking to each other and I will be content. R2 |

| 246746 | 2004-06-23 05:35:00 | Thanks Chill, It will be nice to get away from Winderz and it's idiosyncrasies, I really have had a spoutful of it after two recent complete re-installs. Cheers, R2 |
