O.P. Huh?  Question...
My friend had told me that Microsoft is working on MSN 10, i've seen the screenshots. It will probably be ready for public in september. What i would like to know is it true? If yes, then why skip 8 and 9?:S

RE: Question...
You are most likely confused with "MSN Explorer" and "MSN Messenger", both made by MSN.

MSN Messenger is the product we use to chat with others. The latest non-beta version is 6.2 and the latest beta version is 7.

MSN Explorer is a different product, see http://explorer.msn.com for more details. It's possible that version is upto 10 by then (it's upto 9 now if I'm not mistaken) :)

RE: Question...
That's a screenshot of the concept design for messenger 8 and hotmail wave 11.
It was made by a freelance artist i think and is his concept not what it will look like, i think.
Although the concept for messenger 7 turned out to be pretty acurate ;)
But its unlikly that messenger 8 will be released when 7 isnt out of beta yet.

Please, read what toddy said. Anyone with lots of patience can do that and more.

As Tochjo said, the lastest non-beta version is 6.2 and the public beta (testing) version is 7.

This is called a concept. It is an image of what someone thinks the next version will look like.
