Suggestion: Messenger for Mac + by tominic on 01-04-2009 at 12:14 PM

WLM 2009 beta is currently out and when the BETA is over and is released, a new version of Messenger for Mac will come out.

This will include new features, audio and video support.

Would there be ANY CHANCE whatsoever someone could make a messenger for mac + (A)


Macs are being increasingly used worldwide and if you Messenger pLus was released for Mac, so many people would download it as 1) it'd be the only addon and 2) it'd give features that we currently don't have.

CHEEEEERS

No chance at all. This has been discussed before, and the answer has always been, and most likely always will be, no. Sorry =/

To be 100% honest. Itd be a huge waste of Patchous time. Its a niche market, as most people use alternative chat clients to the MS one on macs. Programming for macs is so much more diffrent then to windows (so harder for Patchou), the acctuall app is diffrent, so he has to restudy it.

And also, who the hell likes macs anyway :P.

But seriously, its a crazy as asking "

The programming interface is completely different than the Win32 architecture. Not to mention that on a MAC the Programming Interfaces for MSN Messenger aren't exported if I am not mistaken. Therefore a near impossible task. Unfortunately not something you will ever see from Patchou.

I think, if it was created it would be a success, and mattisdada I like macs, why?
They are much much much better than Windows.
