Minimal skin as default skin? Well, I don't know if that's a good idea.
There are many people that rate software after their first look, so if they
see our great screenshots on the homepage, download it and then "only" see
aMSN with the minimal skin, it's not the best first impression. Sure they
can change the skin, but I there are so many people that kick away software
that doesn't fit their imaginations from the beginning. So I think we should
let Sapphire be the default skin if possible. Maybe we could decide
depending on the OS which skin is the default:
Memo, Windows < XP, and maybe other OSs that are run on systems with lower
resources for sure = minmal
others = Sapphire
