I wonder which latest version of Skype will work well with the
ultimate Tiger version. I tried to update to the latest Skype version
which still supports Tiger but it failed to start. My current older
version is 2.8.0.851.

I am running Skype 2.8.0.866 on a MDD G4 with OS 10.4.11. Works well.  
All later versions won't run on this machine.

Skype is now Intel only with all the v5 series.


My current older version is 2.8.0.851.


Even this version doesn't launch on my PPC G5. I use v.2.8.0.722 as  
the last version that launches on my G5. I filed bug reports about v. 
2.8.0.851, 2.8.0.863, 2.8.0.866 NOT launching on my PPC G5 under  
10.5.8 and this was confirmed by others. If you have a G3 CPU the  
final version of Skype that supports the G3 CPU is v.2.7.0.330. You  
can get old versions at http://mac.oldapps.com/.
