Hi! I understand your perspective here, but, I'm a kind of guy who likes stable and prooved things. I don't have dial up and for all I know, nobody from my list has it. Dial up is ancient history for today's standard and for some reason there's still remains of it, but less and less each day. 3.8 is not so old version and, as long as I can talk to other side and we understand each other, I really have no need to update to something that looks way different from what I used to, spend my time to find out where are the options and other items, learn new shortcuts etc etc... I'm not going to produce music through Skype so I really don't need to hear every register and harmonic from other side voice.
