And Skype will continue to be terrible. Just installed Office 2013 with its included 'Skype for Business' and boy does it look terrible. Its got a distinct MSN Messenger from the early 2000's vibe going on. Lots of buttons, very bright color choices (lots of white and bright blue).

To be fair, that is rebadged Lync, not really skype. And yes, lync is terrible.

If I could get the old skype back, with that 2000s vibe, I wouldn't have any issues with it.
