Hey Scott, IChat is accessible, and it works with more than just AOL. It works with .Mac and Jabber as well, and may also work with more, but I haven't dug that deeply into it. By setting up a Jabber server on your machine, you can use any number of other supported protocols / networks as well. However, some may consider this a security issue, and as there is Adium at this point, which is also accessible, the server alternative may not be right for some.

I personally really like IChat, as it's very fast and responsive; with a very simple clean interface.

  HTH and catch ya on the flippers!…

Smiles,

Cara  :)

Hi John, if you type in those combo boxes, you can put in the screenname. HTH

Hey all. I am trying to figure out how to add a contact in IChat. The thing is, I can't figure out where the edit field is to put people's screen names in. It appears to not show up. All I hear is "combo box." What do I need to do to get the screen name in? Thanks for the help.
