Come ooon, if that installer worked with a normal speed on your computers, what would your opinion be about it then? Would you like it? If I were Microsoft, I would do the same thing, promote all my new Live products set when people wanted to install one of them?

It doesn't force any programs upon you except Sign-in assistant.

Sorry for my tone but WTF?
Sorry sorry sorry

The installer speed wasn't an issue for me really. In fact I find it annoying all the time Microsoft asked me if I wanted MSN.com as my homepage (which was checked each time).

Oh, I know the reason!
It was designed by turks....

I agree 100% that the beta testers should have received more betas before the final release of the Suite. However, there has been a TON of internal testing being done. I don't quite think that the WLSuite will be released as the final version, and do expect a few builds comming in October for quite a few WL products. Specifically Gallery and Messenger.

Hopefully, with the amount of feedback their getting from the few releases they've had, they are going to fix and correct a lot of things.

Well the latest messenger release it's still a beta, even though it's been stripped of beta tags. So that's 2 betas..

Strikes me they're just trying to push unfinished products out the door...

Microsoft release betas now to gain attention to a product or service. The majority of testing is done by the developers themselves, which is one of the most disastrous decisitions when millions of users use their software.

I remember when MSN Messenger 7.0 was in beta, there was so many builds released to testers and only a minority were leaked.

If Patchou released a couple of betas to testers there would be a lot more bugs.
