Hi,
is there any option to disable changing the nickname and pm to the one
stored at server? I know this is newly introduced feature, however, I used
my personal message to show at which machine I'm signed in and now this is
not possible, since it is changing all the time.

Thanks,
Jan

Roaming Identity - Your display name follows you any place you sign into.
Now your display picture and personal message will follow you too. If you
would prefer they stayed in place you can turn this off
(Tools->Options->General -> Sign In -> "Use the same display picture....")

Find it myself very quickly... sorry for asking. ;-)

Greetings Jan,

More than one person internally at Microsoft has been asking where this feature was because
they couldn't find it, so, don't feel so bad
