Download Skype for Mac 5.7 build 1037

Skype has released version 5.7 of its voip client for Mac OS X. Where Skype used to only pay attention to the Windows version, the Mac OS X version is getting just as much attention these days. For example, video conferencing with up to ten people is possible and text messages can be sent to contacts who are not online. In version 5.7, among other things, the possibility has been added to adjust the volume in the settings, something that owners of USB headsets in particular would have asked for. The full changelog for this release can be found below.
