Does Anyone Else Have AIM for a Mac?

I just downloaded it and why does it suck? Is there anyway to list all the people online at the top like AIM usually does that way I don't have to scroll down the entire list to see who is online?

I had AIM on my macbook for a while as well - and it never seemed to want to work properly, so I finally deleted it. If you are looking to use AIM - I recommend you download Adium - which has AIM, Yahoo Messenger, MSN and a few others.

Will it be too confusing though? It sounds kind of confusing.

It's really no more confusing than AIM - plus it's more convenient (for me anyway - because I use both AIM and MSN - so it's better for me this way because everything is in the same place, and I don't have to have two separate messengers open.)

Ugh, I hate AIM for the Mac. I use AIM through iChat which is not all that great either but at least it works better than AIM.

Another client? Okay, I think I'll give the A-word one a try. But doesn't MSN not work for a Mac?

I couldn't use AIM for Mac without it crashing every few minutes, so I switched to iChat. It took some time to get used to, but I don't mind it anymore.

Yes. Yes. Yes

Adium rocks, I have AIM, MSN and Yahoo accounts all on it and it just works.

I use AIM on iChat and it works great. I used AIM for Mac when I first got my computer, and I felt like I was back when AIM first came out, and it would crash constantly. I'd recommend just using iChat, it's great and very easy to use most of the time.

I use Adium and highly recommend it. It's very easy to use.

But if I'm using Adium and chatting with someone using MSN, can I still cam with them?
