I can't just slap it on the desk (not that I have room, anyway, for another piece of equipment) and lift it by hand, because for whatever damned reason that won't work.

Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo frustrated. JUST. A. CUSTOM. GREETING. That's all I want, dammit!

I HATE the new Skype. And this is just one part of that hate, though it's the least because I rarely use it for incoming calls. (For one thing, they've never had Canadian phone numbers. Best I can manage is Seattle area.)

By all means, complain. My sense is that they're slowly adding features back. Of course, that begs the question of why they even did what they did, but that's a loosing battle. (Like you, I have a superb Sennheiser headset I use all the time for Skype. )
