Brand new

2 days with my new Macbook and I absolutley love it. I purchased a Dell laptop with vista about 3 weeks ago and had nothing but trouble with it...anyway I returned it and got myself a Macbook and so far I'm very impressed.

All the best

welcome aboard and good luck with the macbook!

Is it ok to download MSN messenger?

it is, but you're better off downloading adium.

Thanks for the reply, whats the advantage of this over MSN messenger direct?

i've heard of many problems with MSN for macs. the other advantage is multiple acconts - like trillian on windows (but far better in my experience).

Leon1878, Welcome to Mac Forums.

You have experienced and acted upon a very rationale response to Vista! Congratulations!!!

Just out of curiosity, what problems did you have with Vista?

I found that MSN messenger always left the disk image thing on my desktop. Also with aduim you can use MSN, yahoo, aol, and other chat programs at once. You also can get the add-ons like these http://www.adiumxtras.com/

It took me a bit ti get use to adium, but I love it. If you used webcams with msn messenger you may want to try skype to video ur windows friends.
