Hotmail to Outlook
« on: 07 December 2012, 10:57 »
Has anybody here changed their Hotmail account to Outlook as MSN seem to expect us to do?

Not done mine yet and was wondering if I should.

Done it with my Hotmail accounts since release, quite like it and I've got used to it so much that I can't remember what it was like before  :laugh:

It's MUCH better. Do it.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

I'm sure I saw something to click on last night that allows you to switch back to Hotmail so worst case scenario you could switch it back over.

Yes, it's just a new look & new @outlook.com address if you want. IMO, it's the best thing to have happened to Hotmail ever. A nice clean & quick interface.

Email doesn't change, you can sign up for a new @outlook.com Email of course if you wanted though
