Well I love the new msn messenger 7 beta and I have a lot of friends using
it. Is there any plans of making windows messenger as good as msn messenger??
I can't underestand why make two versions that are both free and and using
the cripled one for everyting?
Maybe bring the two versions into one?
Or make msn messenger accept the same plugins as windows messenger. So that
customers don't have to make any discisions based on wich of the two wil work
with my software.
