Hi, everyone.
After about a month I'll lay my mortal hands [FINALLY] to my new Mac and will try to forget most of my wotk with pc.
But there is so much little things, I dont know about.
For example - I have MSN messenger, where is many of my friends and work contacts. Often it's most easiest way to get info or make an appointment in bar via messenger, not phone. Question is - will I be able have msnm on my mac or is there some soft, to make my contact work?
What was yours little things?
Thanx!

There is an official MSN client from MS for OS X, and there's a variety of third party apps that can do MSN as well. Most of these apps can also interface with other networks as well, which is good if you message through multiple clients usually.

A few examples:

Adium
Proteus
Fire

Or the Official MSN for Mac:

Adium is quite popular.

I'd recommend using Adium over the official MSN client.

The official MSN client lacks a lot of the features of the Windows one, but Microsoft recently said they were working on a new, more feature-rich version.
