[QUOTE="PunkRockTuba, post: 137679, member: 11201"] Before I got my powerbook I thought the same thing. Ive used adium and its pretty cool, but I could not stand the stupid duck sound it makes when you get or send an IM, you might be able to turn that off but I couldnt figure out. AIM for mac is total crap, nothing more to be said about that. In all honesty, just stick with iChat, it frustrated me at first, but once I got used to it then it was fine. You can customize it to make it look a little more like AIM: making peoples screen names show up instead of their buddy icon, getting rid of the bubbles, etc. The coolest thing about iChat is that you can format the incoming text so you dont have to deal with all those small hard to read fonts. I would say when you get your powerbook, just stick with iChat for a while and get used to it. Then if you really dont like it, try something else. [/QUOTE]
