An "updated" beta. Beta 2 sounds much better imo.

It most certainly does, I'm downloading it anyway. Who knows, maybe it's better than the first beta. Tongue

The new WLM doesn't allow you to change your name... gey.

You can't change your display name like you could in previous versions.

You can, you just can't do it so frivolously now.
And sometimes the wlm server isn't responding so it takes several hours to take effect.

The only way to change your display name now is by changing your First and Last name in your profile.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

You're right, but is that an issue?
I know it's more of a pain in the ass, but at least you can still change it.

Who uses Live for anything other than messenger anyway? Shouldn't be a problem.
