one of the popular application for every computer no matter which
operating system you are running, is of course Instant messaging.
for osx the most popular is Microsoft messenger or Adium.

i want to share my personal disappointment from apple that after so
many year still didn't have the time to develop ichat connection for msn network.

i really want to know, its not possible ?
why do i need to use two or three programs to chat with my friends ?

is it just me or you think the same ?

You don't need multiple clients - Adium can connect to a variety of networks at the same time and each contact list is consolidated into one list. You would never notice the difference.

You can use iChat to talk to people on MSN but it requires a bit of work. Read the instructions here. It may be a bit convoluted but it gets the job done if you are determined to use iChat.
