Microsoft Live Meeting is getting some complaints about it's web client...

A 15Mb download with 125 mb required for the installation, gulp.

Live Meeting 2007 Launched - Please note, David the "web conferencing expert" is a Regional Manager at WebEx Communications, so possibly a little biased.

Gravatar Image2 - Granted there is sarcasm in my blog about Live Meeting 2007 but the reality is that for full functionality, I need to download a 15 MB client and have at least 125MB of space. It's a MSFT product that doesn't support it's own company's most recent operating system: Vista??? Just doesn't make sense to me.

Still not sure how this new version of Live Meeting is going to benefit the customer.

Gravatar Image3 - @2 Hi David, I actually enjoy sarcasm, my line was purely a disclaimer so that people knew you work for WebEx, not that what you said was incorrect or dishonest.
