Skype works perfectly on several of my Linux boxes and
also on a couple windows boxes. SuSE 8.2 and 9.1.
Windows 98 and XP. (Shucks, it even works in a Windows
VMware virtual machine running on a linux Host!)
It uses the firewall piercing scheme so that you never
have to mess with your firewall to get it to work. (Well
almost never).
Crystal clear voice coms, good IM client, and File transfer.
