Microsoft LCS grabs at the Mac users Sametime doesn’t touch
Tags :Announcement
Reading (as usual) some info on IM. It
seems Microsoft has enhanced the Microsoft Messenger 5.0 for Macs running
OS X with some new interface looks and the ability to have a 'Personal'
and 'Corporate' tab. You log into Passport with the personal one
and to your corporate LCS with the other.
We all know that everyone has personal
and corporate accounts. We all wish that one interface would solve
them. (Did I just hear Trillian with the Sametime plugin?) I
know, Sametime was made as an enterprise application that used to have
one public component. Comparing that to what was a public IM system
embedding the new enterprise package from the same company with Microsoft.
But isn't the mere possibility of tapping
the untapped market the whole point. Not if the package does both personal
and business, but if it touches somewhere that the competitor doesn't ?
