Hey i just wanted to ask a question to you macs.
Is it possible to get msn on macs?
This is the only thing that is really stopping me from buying one, just thought id ask.
I always thought because it was MicroSoft Network, it wouldnt work with a mac
Thanks anyway

Yes, you can get msn on a mac. I'm running it right now on my intel mac.

Download it here: http://www.microsoft.com/mac/downloads.aspx?pid=download&location=/mac/download/misc/messenger60_download.xml

And a little tip. The way I found this in the first place was by typing msn messenger for a mac on google. So if you do a tiny bit of research you will find what you need.

It's worth noting that the Mac Messenger has serveral limitations, such as the ability to use your built in webcam or handwritten messages.

You're lazy?

Last time I checked, typing two words (Mac MSN) was faster than:

Just pointing this out, googles way faster.

Use Virtual PC. WLM for Mac is very limited. No webcam, handwritten messages, and much more

I use Mercury Messenger for Mac. It supports webcams, emoticons, handwriting, file transfer, everything!

I believe you can also configure iChat to your Passport account but I had limited success with this as every time I signed in my entire list tried to add me.

You can get Mercury Messenger here:
