Hey Chris, thanks so much for the list of apps. I installed Trillion because I thought I had read that it was accessible. I couldn't find adium in the app store not sure if I spelled it right here, but I did when I searched for it, as I looked it up first. Did you download Adium from the app store or just a site? Funny thing I have never used Growl, and always heard it coming up in previous versions of the operating system, but never knew what it was. Is Growl something that is preinstalled or do you have to install it and then I assume you have to set it to appear in the menu bar because right now it is not appearing in mine.
