Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

I've tried the new version 2.8.0.722, but my experience wasn't too good.

The new interface is more like the windows version, crunched with things. Some people like it, I rather the clean style (like in Mac-Gnome).

But what made me return to the previous version I had installed was the quality. Sound and video were quite terrible. I tried deleting preferences and fix permissions but it didn't do any good.

For me (Macbook pro1,1, OS 10.5.8 at test-time and 10.6.1 now) Skype version 2.7.0.330 is the one that works the best so far.
