There is no version of plus! for mac and there never will be due to lack of API on the mac version of MSN Messenger. Basically MSN Messenger for mac does not have the technology for plus to run on.

The mac msn versions are seriously horrible. I pesonally hate macs, but I think Microsoft should update their messenger clients to at least window's 6.2. I feel pain for my friends chatting on a mac :'(

well msn messenger is from microsoft, you know the company against apple, hell mac users are lucky they even get msn messenger, if they want a good IM they should be getting on apples ass not microsofts, its not microsofts fault apple hasnt made a decent IM client.

i think mac users should stop complaining and live with it, their choice for purchasing what they purchased :undecided:

Actually, MS is not against the Mac. MS also has created lots more then Messenger for the Mac (eg: almost all the Office applications like Word, Excel, etc have a Mac version) It is only that MS doesn't have the same amount of programmers for the Mac as for the PC, and also their interest isn't so much in the Mac. But that doesn't mean they hate it or boycot it or whatever... It is simply not interesting for them as their userbase are PC users... ;)

ok...lets see....i am not a mac zealot, i am a ms windows disliker, let me see what i think:

OK PEOPLE WITH MAC....DOWNLOAD ADIUM...it has all the pretty plus of windows live messenger, except the IM logo, and webcam support...it skins, has transparencies...well u know...anything is possible in this app...oh and yes...it is SLICKER that plus! made by patchou...its not just an add on...its a whole new program (hey..u can get almost 100% of msn messenger without the million virus of windows....amazing huh?)

and yes, windows live messenger has a lot of tecnology, even so that i see it run on brand new computers and freezes a couple of minutes before u can actually use it! :banana:

so windows can :pound: to see if vista is capable of pairing to osx...anyway, they tried to copy it a bit...just a bit...

so patchou...i dont really care if you don't want to make a mac version of plus...i have linux AND vista in my macbook pro...and i dont even bother to use msn on windows, because a i have REAL software (no add ons) like ADIUM that look even better!!

see ya guys!!
