Once again about Microsoft want to buy Yahoo. If Microsoft really wrap up the deal, do you think they will eliminate MSN messengger? But its almost as popular as Yahoo messengger. What do you think?

I'm not sure. Because Microsoft still not manage to buy Yahoo. So, no need to think about that.

I like both MSN and Yahoo messenger. If they combine, I like and should be good. We can enjoy both. Now yahoo user can add msn as friend but msn can't add yahoo.

Well, let's see how it goes. Seem like there's no more news on the takeover by Microsoft. Only if that deal goes through, we can only expect to see that. Anyway, I prefer YM as a separate entity.

For more challenger, more fun and view more product from yahoo and MSN. I prefer they works seperate and no need to merge like micorosoft. I believe yahoo know what they need to do now.

I used to use MSN all the time. Then I switched to yahoo. I think I would be pretty upset if they merged. I really hate Microsoft!

IF microsoft ever got yahoo they wouldnt drop MSN msgr for the simple reason:

Anyone who owns a copy of windows gets a copy of MSN, its one of the most widely used messengers. Yahoo was only really used before the chat rooms were dropped, then people moved onto things like meebo which allow you to use AOL msgr MSN msgr Yahoo msgr and ICQ.

Plus hotmail is better then yahoo mail (sorry my own view there), and as its tied in with MSN they wont get rid of it. If anything Yahoo msgr would be converted to MSN msgr and people would be transfered over.

I prefer if MSN and Yahoo still around. But better if feature from both can introduce to each other. We can then enjoy both program

If you look at the basics of the msgr's they are the same, the layout is different yes and a few different bits added here and there, but they are the same lol

Look the same but i prefer menu option in yahoo messenger. Is better and easy to find. I can also put and create mood and i use yahoo all the time. For Msn, the help file have more info so I like if they combine

Yap. You also can change background and avatar. You can change a lots. So far, i prefer with yahoo mesengger than MSN. But if they merged. I don't know what we can called that mesengger and its really weird if that happen.
