Just released not long ago, Skype 2.6.0.140 for Mac OS X is now available for Macintosh users. I don’t think there is a need for an introduction of what Skype is about. Basically, it uses a peer-to-peer (P2P) technology to allow connections between users who would like to share files, chat and even see over video cameras.

Secured with end-to-end encryption, the calls also have excellent sound quality. It works well behind firewalls and NAT routers, therefore there is no hassle needed to configure any network devices.

System Requirements

• * Mac computer with G4 800 Mhz processor or faster.
• * Mac OS X v10.3.9 Panther or later.
• * 512 MB RAM.
• * 40 MB free disk space.
• * Microphone and speakers or headset.
• * Drivers for your webcam.
• * Internet connection (broadband preferred).

Skype is also available in other platforms; that is, Windows and Linux.
