NienorGT Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Simply AWESOME. Can't wait for the final. I feel sorry for people that tried to make Vista skins for WLM...

PyX Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Haha, there's not one version where they don't change the GUI, right? I can't wait until they actually make the Mac Messenger valuable...

PyX Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Without Webcam nor Audio, nor handwriting, nor nudges and with insanely slow file transfers (I read that the mac version uses really old file transfer protocols or something...), it's not really valuable to me.

NoneAvail Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Are they accepting or taking in Beta testers or they going to release it whenever they feel like it? Any release dates?

Eli Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Neat that it leaked so early. Sucks that it won't install on my machine (XP 32Bit SP2.....I'm not the only one it seems). Oh well when the actual beta does come along, I'll be in it to bug find like crazy.

Slimy Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 ^ The survey for that is very broad. I'm not sure if it will really be for 8.5, I think they'll just invite previous wlm beta people like they always do.

MGS4-SS Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Looks nice. Waiting for the A-Patch anxiously :D Oh, and why can't they add Tab Conversations from the start? Now I have to wait for Messenger Live Plus! to do all the work.
