How good can I run Skype

My mom wants to run Skype she has an old computer. It is:
P-4 2.5 single core 512 KBytes/Cache with 2 Gigs DDR-333
How good will it run?

Also, who makes a good cam/headset?

I know this topic is a little old, but if you're still needing an answer:
It should be ok.
Medium quality video calls: 1GHz CPU, 512Mb ram
Higher quality video calls: Core2Duo or faster
Most of the quality depends on your connection. For HD calls I think 2Mb/s down and 1Mb/s up is the minimum.

For decent cams/headsets I have two Logitech c270h I got at Walmart for about 30 bucks. Does 720p and came with a headset. Good quality video/picture and good clear sound with either the built in mic or the headset

Works well with Skype and Windows Live Messenger
