[ale] skype

[drifter]

Have the FC13 disc on hand.  Just not looking forward to forcing the 
install onto a RAID 1.  Last time I did that it took hours for me to figure 
out how to do it as the install routine didn't recognize the existing RAID
and I had to recreate it from scratch -- something I do NOT do often enough 
to remember the precise order of the steps involved. :)
