Is the Google chat code native or is in running under WINE? And, if so,
do they have a native 64-bit version yet rather than requiring 32-bit
libraries?
It runs native of the Linux system. They have 32 bit and 64 bit
versions. I get the idea that Skype is difficult to install. Google Chat
is easy. Less than 5 minutes unless you make the stupid mistakes I made.
Go to:

and see.
