AOL lost it's opportunity to own the instant message application market. All they are now is like an ISP or the phone company. This is nothing but a tear off from that other misguided project AOL Desktop for Mac. AOL is trying to make a two for one here and both are subpar and years late and a million features short. You have to think that in this economy AOL needs to lay people off right? Start with this group they ad "0" ZERO value to us as users. iChat is more robust and Adium and more flexible. AOL Desktop is just a non-starter. So let's all pack it up and go home as friends!
