My #linux Friends, I need your help.
My company uses Skype For Business to conduct meetings, for the life of my I cannot get it working on #linux . Has anyone ever found a work around?

@NeuroWinter This might not be helpful as you're probably tied to Skype but have you tried Wire? wire.com

@drh Unfortunately they are all using Skype and they don't really want to change just for one #linux user...

@NeuroWinter Could you run it in a container or VM? It's a drama I know.

@drh @NeuroWinter that's what I was going to suggest. I'd also investigate keeping a Raspberry Pi with Win10 IoT as a separate Skype bix

@NeuroWinter @dataKnightmare That's an interesting idea. The RPi 3 should have plenty of juice for that.

@drh @dataKnightmare That is a cool idea and its a reason for me to get a pi! I might look into that!
