I searched for this but want to know...

Is there a way to make a program, specifically iChat and iTunes, to always remain in front of all windows like the "Always on Top" feature in XP?

If you hit the green button to get the iTunes mini player and check the according option under itunes-> preferences-> advanced, you can get the mini player to always stay on top.

As for iChat - I can't find an option for this there, but if you install Chax, it adds this feature:

Alternatively you could use Adium instead - it definitely has this option.

I can't believe i never hit the green button. i have been using this computer since last september and have been wondering why there was no option for the mini player in the menu bar like there is in the windows version. never in a million years would i have thought to try the little green button.

I actually find it pretty non-intuitive too...

I mean, every other app zooms when you press the button - except iTunes...

(Hold down option and click the green button to force iTunes to zoom)
