Had no problems so far. Signs in within 3 seconds, dosent rape rescorces too badly, offline msging is a bonus and contacts are fine.

yeah lives been perfect with me. i was clever enough to save my contacts on 7, then just load them onto live.

folder sharing is cool (you can send someone a file whilst they are offline, then once they come online it will start downloading to their computer, makes it much quicker, and much easier if the other person always disconnects.

I have been using live since it was first released on invite, and personally I don't think it makes that much difference. I haven't had a problem with it, and it runs smoothly.

I must say though, everytime they update messenger, they fill it with so many crappy useless functions that clutter the interface, and people never use.

I guess it's the thought that counts :P

Farphit: So it uses up stupid resources on the msn servers?

msgplus aint good enouigh for live imo
I miss the mini display pics on the contact list
The icon sucks
The fact you can send a msg to somewhen when in appear offline sucks

Yes, but then people you want to be able to chat to you cant - why not just block people you dont want to chat to, tis easier.

Senture said:
You can send messages to people when they are offline, when they sign in they are there waiting

Kinda defeats the use of e-mail then doesn't it.

Yes, but it's quite useful for those who don't use e-mail a lot but constantly disconnect.
