Oi! Whats All This Then?

With the new look MSN.co.uk

Which I notice the Yanks have already had for a week or two now?
(wether they were lucky or us us a matter of opinion?)

And the new MSM 4.5 released...

Its all very interesting....

---

How is everyone here finding it all?

Has it made any differece to you at all? :)

Has anyone had any major problems yet?

---

Just a couple of note though... Sometimes whenever I close the older MSM (3.6?) I used to see the same XP side-banner popup for a few seconds before everything closed down...
Does this mean that MSM 3.6 was essentially 4.5 with just an old style front end?

which would allow Microsoft to configure their systems for the new MSM without everybody complaining about Microsoft screwing things up...
and would also explain the problems MSM were having just after 3.6 was released?

---

Also... the required spec is a 486DX with 8MB ram...

Now, this may not sound like a lot these days... but, considering what MSM is doing, it seems like a pretty hefty requirement spec?

Not that Microsoft are trying to get us to buy XP at all? :)

Although... apart from that, I quite like it :)

I'm quite happy about it. I've been using it for a little while now and it certainly makes life easier, especially when using emoticons from the menu instead of trying to remember all those combinations of keys.
