Skype for Linux video on EeePC

Cheap computers are a Xmas standard. The $400 ASUSTek EeePC comes with Skype for Linux. However if you upgrade from the pre-installed version to the 2.0 Beta for Xandros, you get video. Two EeePC models have a built-in webcam and microphone, Skype-ready but not necessarily Skype HDHigh Quality Video.

Just in time to renew all those family relationships.

Thanks to Berkus for the photo and Overand for the upgrade information.
