I use Skype, extensively for all communications to China and Far/Middle East. If Skype is not VoIP then I don't know what definition you could use. PS Skype over both SuSE and MS Win OSs (depends on computer) 2. If any ISP uses BT wholesale, they cannot improve on the BT wire limit and in this village it is the age of the old 1960s cheap steel coated with copper in last cabinet to house wire that determines performance. 3.

I am not a consumer of video/entertainment but do shift large CAD files to and from other countries. -- Regards Eion MacDonald -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
