[QUOTE="sonnetpete, post: 830331, member: 310216"] I'd never had Skype, but have used Messenger to chat with my stepdaughter. I wanted to chat with my girlfriend in South Africa who used Skype alone, so installed it and had the two running quite happily alongside each other. I also had several badgering emails and eventually migrated the messenger contacts to Skype. It took a few sign in's before it worked but I still have Messenger on my laptop and it runs seperately (still with it's own contact list) from Skype. In fact I can't see any difference from before except that I can no longer change my status on Messenger without making it the same on Skype. I do find that inconvenient when I'm chatting to my girlfriend and my stepdaughter comes online and I can't go "away" to her alone... [/QUOTE]
