MSN Messenger 7 and handwriting option

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.messenger (More info?)

Hey,

Not sure if this is the right newsgroup. Appologies if not.

I've installed the MSN Messenger 7 (beta) on my home- and my workcomputer.
In my workplace I got a (pretty cool!!) option for inkwriting/drawing in
messages to other users, whilst on my home computer this option is not
visible. Any clues to this? Is Microsoft just baking that option into some
of the downloads to create a gmail-ish manic "everybody wants" that option?


Regards,
Knut

Greetings Knut,

The handwriting option will only appear if you're using Windows 2000 or XP and if you have
ink support installed (to install ink, you'll need to install something like the Microsoft
Journal Viewer:

)
