Blink is a SIP client with a pretty UI and some advanced features such as HD audio (G.722) that you probably never heard of it. I know I didn't until today. Perhaps the fact that it currently only runs on Mac and the Linux operating systems and not Windows had something to do with not knowing. Although I use Linux, I use it for servers not any of my desktops. I don't use Macs and probably never will due to the higher cost for performance (The Apple Tax). Also, nothing against Macs, but Windows 7 is reliable, has plenty of eye candy and is just as easy to use as any Mac operating system. Why go through a new learning curve to use a different operating system? Anyway, I digress...
