Swad Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 There are so many applications going Intel-native these days that it’s hard keep up with all of them (MacUpdate is good place to visit for doing so). Here are a few new ones that we found interesting. For those wanting to go back a little bit, you can now get your Quake II fix in full universal fashion. Like most of the game updates, you’ve got to have a copy of the PPC version to play. But hey, for an awesome late 90’s game, what do you expect? Also – and probably of more interest to our community – is that the new version of Skype is Intel-ready. With the new version you can, Forward calls to other Skype Names or regular phones, Pause iTunes automatically when you get a call, and get nice notifications with Growl. Try these out and let us know what you think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Bond Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Also – and probably of more interest to our community – is that the new version of Skype is Intel-ready. What, you're saying we'd rather gossip on the phone with our fellow geeks, instead of enjoying some hardcore, oldschool gaming? Man....so out of touch with today's youth, Mash. Not that I've used skype much...don't know anyone who uses it regularly. Though maybe with that new-fangled skype phone it'll be a tad easier.

A Nonny Moose Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 I use Skype and it feels the same as the previous version at twice the file size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason_25 Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 On my Celeron 2.4 Skype is usable now. Previously it took forever to load and had very broken audio. Works great now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
