I watched their video regarding this release and the user interface. They say it's Mac like. But Skype is not iTunes or the Finder. So if they wanted to do it Mac like, they should have looked at iChat or FaceTime.

Exactly, I went back to the old Skype a day after trying the new beta. I just couldn't get into it. I do think that the Skype chat on a mac and the whole calls interface could use some work, but the contact list was perfect IMO.

I ran a BBS out of Stockholm, Sweden on my Atari 1040STFM with a MegaDrive 60MB harddrive which was really loud in my bedroom all day and all night, like a vacum cleaner. Many different people from all over the country dialed my one phone line connection. People downloaded mostly Public Domain applications have music in MOD-format. I met up with some of the people logging in, they were often older than me and could by booze, haha. Just reminiscing....
