Skype Supports Conference Call Up to 10 Users

Filed in: Downloads, Technology, VoIP, Web — February 9th, 2006


The latest version of Skype supports conference call with up to 10 users, but you are required to use Intel’s dual-core processor to open the feature.

Intel’s Core Duo and Pentium D processors have been designated the mass conference-calling processor of choice for Skype 2.0, launched last month. The limit will remain at five callers for PCs using single-core chips and Advanced Micro Devices’ dual-core Athlon 64 chip, which some tests have shown outperforms Intel’s dual-core chip.

My two cents

Intel wants to master AMD sales using Skype? That’s a dirty marketing trick, in my opinion.

I am yet a Skype user. I think my mother will use Skype earlier than me to call her sister in Taiwan. :)

By the way, Skype 2.0 supports video call now (windows version) !
