All Mac Skype Users: Read This

[The Professor]

The newest version (Version: 2.6.0.140) SUCKS. The audio quality is less than ideal and it crashes like a mofo. It's not just you -- trust me. We've all been fighting it. Thankfully, there is a solution. Go to this page:

Download the last release (Skype 2.6.0.137) and instal it. Everything is now peachy!!!

Peachy indeed thanks Darrel.

Is version 2.6.0.151 any better?

I want to go download it, but if it's still shitty then I'll pass.

first, I want to applaud you for using the search not that you don't usually, but just as a reminder that this is a perfect example of how using the search is a good thing. OK ... off my soapbox. LoL!

second, go ahead and use the current version now. it's a little buggy still, but so is skype generally. biggest problem now, imho, is random shutdowns when you start a voice chat. j6ppc and I call it "sinking the battleship" (e.g., I call him, which causes his skype to quit, and I say "I sunk your battleship").

Macs *are* ... but we've got no control over poor software development from 3rd parties.

I do my best to use the search function, but sometimes it does not work out very well. Thanks for the kudos.

Thanks for the heads up.

That was kinda my thought, but it seems that Mac products come with complimentary blinders..........
