Why MSN versus the Windows Messenger?

[Michael B. Blake]

What are the reasons to choose one versus the other?

Greetings Michael,

Both clients have different features (this will be more profound in Windows Messenger 5), and
really it's up to you which one you prefer. If you prefer the new shiny interface, like
features like custom emoticons, display pictures, etc. in MSN Messenger 6, then use that --
if you need to utilize Exchange Instant Messaging, SIP-based Communication Services, or
simply prefer the 'Classic' Messenger look, you can use Windows Messenger.

.
it just a matter of which one you like best. They both

do about the same thing. But if you don't have MSN on
your computer when you add messenger you get all kinds of
other stuff you won't want.
