 RayWPremium join:2001-09-01 Layton, UT kudos:1 | Another hole in Windows? Applications do not belong in the OS. Having VoIP as a "significant" part of Vista will probably open up as many holes as forcing IE to be integral to Windows did. Of course, the fact that IE was forced in with no planning as a stop gap for the 'kill the competition' lawsuit and this VoIP should be better planned and thought out, MIGHT make a difference in how exploitable the VoIP links are. -- I am not lost, I find myself every time. | |

| Re: Another hole in Windows? Bla, Bla.....
First, saying that is "PART" of Vista does not means that is coded into Vista. Altough, I have to admit I have not read the full article.
There are many VoIP programs today that run in windows... Take Cisco IPCC. In addition, they do not have to run in the OS itself, they can work aspart of the Messenger or other web interface. | |

Altough, I have to admit I have not read the full article. Have not read it either, do not had a WSJ account, but the rehash on the DSL blurb did state "significant part". That brings back memories of the Kill Netscape Program and the resulting lawsuit and rhetoric and the result thereof. -- I am not lost, I find myself every time. | |

 | | Is this just MSN Messenger? Since we can't see the article without paying, are they just talking about Messenger? | |

 |  | | Re: Is this just MSN Messenger? I think they are. Msgr already has VoIP functions, PC to PC and PC to Phn. The PC to Phn is billed by another company I believe. | |

| Re: Is this just MSN Messenger? The new messenger beta has verizon voip built in. I have used it to call to my family in the usa and it works pretty good. Of course over wimax here it tends to echo when lots of people use the system at nite. -- "It's always funny until someone gets hurt......and then it's absolutely friggin' hysterical!" | |

P.S. It is not built into Vista. It is just a product that will be rolled out around the same time. And it works just fine on XP.
P.P.S. The above link has all the Windows Live Betas listed down the left side. -- -- My BLOG My Web Page | |

 | | Fallouts of Microsoft on VOIP While Microsoft does not get the first mover advantage in the VOIP marketplace, they would definitely be a formidable force because of their market penetration. An interesting fact to watch out for is how this affects the pace of innonvation in the VOIP world in the long term. this will also have far reaching consequences for penetration of VOIP in the third world.•Read my article here | |

 jdir join:2001-05-04 Santa Clara, CA | You going to trust MS for fone? If I plan to call a tech support, has to reboot my phone a few times, and install some crapola anti-virus and take 10 mins to boot the phone - I might as well use my trusty reliable analog phone. | |
