Dell Video Chat - A Coup for SightSpeed

Posted by J.A. Watson

Dell made several announcements today. The one which caught my eye was "Dell Video Chat powered by SightSpeed". The newly announced Studio line of laptop and desktop computers will have Dell Video Chat preloaded - which will apparently be a custom version of SightSpeed.

There's not a lot of information out on this yet, so I'm not sure about all the details. But this certainly looks like a good way to increase the SightSpeed installed base, and one of the few good ways to combat the average users tendency to install Skype without considering any of the alternatives.
