AshUK Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 Due for the release of Apple's new operating system codenamed "Jaguar" there will be a Instant Messenger program called "iChat" incorporated in it, same kind of way Windows Messenger is in Windows XP. Anyways this iChat will be also be able to use AIM contacts, and as I tried earlier, if you log onto AIM with your mac.com account details it logs you into AIM with your mac.com account. Just thought I'd tell you all. Ash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshUK Posted May 12, 2002 Author Share Posted May 12, 2002 It seems that it only works on the AIM 4.8 Beta Also your contacts must be useing version 4.8. So shall we see a AIM 4.8 Final release when Jaguar comes out in the summer. Also I've been trying to search on the Neowin board but its damn silly with the 4 letter limit. Anyways I need a link for the AIM 4.8 Beta so i can tell my friends to get it. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
