Title: Skype
Post by Tom Roberts on Nov 19^th, 2006 at 3:31pm

I have been playing around with Skype this weekend:

http://www.skype.com/download/

I'm sure many of you are already hooked up. You can now contact Autonerdz via Skype at, you guessed it, autonerdz. We are already toll free in the US and Canada on a regular phone at 877-628-4899 but this should be very helpful for our customers outside North America.

This is an experiment. We'll see how it goes. Looks good so far. We might even schedule a Skypecast conference once in a while.

Ideas or suggestions welcome.

Hi Tom,

re Skype, I double clicked on the address you provided, and just tried to download that file, but a box came up with the following message.
" setup files are corrupted " then I clicked OK, and that was the end.
guess I can retry another day.

That's odd Romain. I had no difficulty. Installation was smooth and the software is fairly intuitive. The voice quality is also very good so far but I have yet to talk to someone from overseas.

Make sure you save the installer file to your hard drive and run it from there.

Thanks Tom,

Followed your method by saving to the desktop, and installed from there, I think we will be fine, the test call was very clear.
