It's just spin, trying to give linux the best possible face regardless
of what your needs are. If you want to voice and text chat with someone
without using anything in particular then linux can do it, if you want
to voice and text chat with some particular people on this one site
supported by the merger of all my money and microsoft then linux can't
do that. Its not politic though to say that linux *can't* do something.
We prefer to say that it doesn't do it yet. *smile*
