Ahh, early Skype was a resource hog, TS and Vent were much better optimised for running in the background. 

Although it might have also been a RAM thing, I remember back then upgrading from 512mb to 1gb RAM, it was the single most noticeable PC upgrade I have ever made to date. I gained over 30fps+ in Star Wars Galaxies (anyone remember that? Loved that game).

Star Wars Galaxies is still the best game ever made, change my mind.
