Only days after the initial announcement, the unified installer for all desktop Windows Live products has already released to the web, although not exactly in the expected way.
The "suite" replaces older Windows Live product installers with a single one for every of them, where we expected it to be a standalone package alongside the product installers. You simply download the 1.7MB file, then choose what products you want to download and install. The installer is pretty efficient, as it downloads other products while one of them install instead of waiting for it to finish.
The package can install Photo Gallery, Messenger, Writer, Mail, Family Safety and Toolbar.
Though the changes added to them are unknown, new builds for Mail, Writer, Photo Gallery and Messenger 8.5 Beta have also been released.
