It has full video support. If you haven't already, download the latest version and start seeing Nanny. As to the other comments.... Bah! I have a MacBook, a Windows machine and an Ubuntu machine sitting on my desk at work. While most of my work requires Windows because of software restrictions, the Mac is not much different in that regard than Ubuntu is. It's a "cute" machine, but it's overpriced and has hardly anything over Linux. I end up using the Ubuntu machine much more often than the Mac, partly because the Mac's keyboard is horrible.

You really should get a macBook. But the problem is nothing really works on Linux, it's a great operating system. Skype would have to invest A TON of money into developping it for Linux, but they wouldn't get alot of money because Linux doen't have as much of a market share. Oh, and No offence but I was as little shocked about what your husband said (i don't mean it in a mean way). When you pay for an Operating System, you get more benefits.

Despite the problem that notquiteleet had with his defective repair, it really is a phenomenal machine. It has an iSight camera built in, and Skype works (mostly) well for videoconferencing right out of the box. nopatience,
