Hi msnln .. I am thinking about the issue that you need to turn on the computer always to use skype... How about electricity cost...? For example, for PC it might use about about 100W average... so 1 year ... 0.1kWh * 24 *365 * 7 cents/kWh = $61.32
I hope it could be much lowered by using laptop. But I think it is worth if you use desktop with CRT, more than 1 hard drive, powerful processor/graphic card or large amount of memory.... Convenience is extra. WiFi skype is about the same price and you may able to use it in most hot spot...
