The problem, of course, is that you need both ends of the conversation
to be using the same software. Like it or not, Skype has become the
de facto standard for video calls. It runs on most desktop and mobile
platforms, and you can generally rely on non-techies to have it
installed.
Bingo. In the business world, it's simply announced that a discussion
will be taking place on Skype. If your loonix computer can't run Skype,
you'll have to have a 'normal' (Windows) one just for that purpose.
