whitebread Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 C'mon Microsoft Canada. Send those bags! :p I can't wait --- it will be a nice bag for my new MacBook that I'm planning on buying :yes: Oh come on, be proud that you're one of the beta testers for the software that thousands of people use every day! :cool: Still waiting in Canada. Maybe we'll get something better, just because we had to wait longer. :laugh: (I can keep dreaming, right?) If only they would send us something better for making us wait :D . Seriously, though... I didn't beta test for a reward -- I'm glad I was in the Private Beta and didn't need to wait for it to go public! That was reward enough for me :yes: .

fukachu Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 well i've had mine a couple days now here in australia and i've done some modding to it. i've removed the two white rubber windows live messenger tags, pealed off the green and blue windows live messenger men from the front flap and replaced it with a HIM band logo of the heartagram. its a sweet bag.. but there was no way i was gonna be caught dead walking around with all the windows live messenger stuff on it.

chanvw Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Just got mine today (in Brisbane, Aus). Although it looks alright, it's a little too small for my liking; I found it pretty hard to squish my 14" tablet into the bag. Anyways, I guess I should look a gift horse in the mouth :p Thanks Microsoft! :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/477422-windows-live-messenger-beta-gift/page/9/#findComment-587804571 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klethron Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Im pretty stoked they sent me anything at all, I was suprised when I got it yesterday, I wasn't expecting anything. I was happy just to test the beta.

fukachu Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Could you possbily tell me how you were able to take off the Messenger Logo on the bag? I would also like to do this possbily :p. It was quite simple actually.. just used the nails on my fingers.. it took a while.. better part of my train trip from my place into the city which is a 50min trip. under the space where the logo was there is a small colour difference that can be noticed in different light. as long as you put your logo/design over the same area it won't be noticeable unless people are really trying to find it.

hansch Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 (edited) I'm not sure whether this has been posted before. I've tried doing a search on "live messenger bag" but none of the results show that this has been posted. I was a bit surprised to receive a bag from Microsoft for helping them to beta test WLM. I don't have a camera with me at the moment but I saw these pictures from another forum. (I don't take credit for the photos and thanks to whoever they belong to.) Loving it!!! The quality of the bag is pretty good too, not cheap & crappy material... :D EDIT: I just realize it has been posted. Sorry.

SixFootJockey Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 can someone explain, how to get this bag? The bag is a gift from Microsoft to all the people who helped test Windows Live Messenger during its development. In order to get one, you had to have been an official beta tester.
