That's what I've been using for years. Until about a year ago I split off into individual programs for a few reasons but now I'm back to Trillian. Although I got used to all the emoticons in the individual programs so now I'm trying to relearn all the ones Trillian has.

I used trillian years ago, and was fairly satisfied with it, even through its problems. Like Marc, after moving over to a Mac, I had to find an alternative. I've been using Fire but it's only so/so on usability.

Marc, you should let me know how you feel about Adium.

I was once a follower of the dark side of the mac-cult , but i left the cult in the early 90s. Dont make me go back noooooooooo!

"i don't care that more than more than half of all software that exists doesn't work on macs... Mac is cute , cheaper and "easy to use"' (because windows is rocket science)

Seems to work fine. I miss the little notice when the other user is typing, and I have minor issues with the friends/buddies list. (Only people online show up... it seems)

Except that Mac is not cheaper. I used to have a Mac and when it came that time that I needed a new computer, I just couldn't afford any of the Macs I wanted so I ended up getting a DOS box that had better specs and was cheaper.

Mac's were rarely ever cheap. Until now. And a home-built box will almost always be cheaper then a name brand computer. On the other hand, there's no warranty, etc....

That is true. My MacBook was more expensive than a comparable Windows based machine. I priced them both ... but as far as reliability ... I went through 4 Windows based laptops in 4 years. I was willing to give Mac a try. I'm glad I did.

Trillian is coming out with a new version of their mashup-IM client (someday) called Astra. There's a little video about it on their site at trillian.cc and it's gorgeous. A friend of mine even gave me a copy of the beta, but I haven't had the guts to install it to try it out yet.

I bought into Trillain (gave them money) after I'd spent a few years using it. I do like it a lot. My only major gripe right now is that the GoogleIM broke. However, the newest version seems to have solved that... Also, I had to give them money to get JABBER to work (for Google.)

Didn't mind, though, I do love their client enough to want to support it.

      How Are You Feeling? (cont'd)

      By TronRP · Posted

      I am currently floored.   FedEx did a massive 6 box delivery to the wrong address.  I had an autoship order scheduled to arrive before this past weekend.  Nothing showed up.  I contacted the order site and they had a link for the order...a photo of all my boxes thrown in the snow and up the sidewalk of a residence that was not mine.   You would think that at some point, the driver would have looked at the delivery address after they kept throwing box upon box at this location with no shelter from the elements.  They didn't even knock on the door to inform the residents that massive 65+ pound boxes were left all over their walkway.  Nope.  Just dumped them, took a photo as they were walking away and left.   I wonder what the person who found all of those misdelivered boxes must have been thinking when they saw them.  Maybe they kept everything to use, distribute or sell.  No idea.  No claim was filed on that end as of yet.   Fortunately for me, one of the sites that I ordered from, replaced everything at no extra cost.   Unfortunately, now I'm concerned for the other items yet to be delivered.   Needless to say, I'll be watching my notifications like a hawk.

      ~~~~~ Yeah, thank you for the check-in.   Happy to say it was all a misunderstanding.  But she pulled out her "ghetto" and that's when things went South.  I get very professional minded when I enter into situations like that because when someone starts bring the court into conversations, I'm in court 2 times a year, every year, so don't go there with me because I will get legal all over you.   She did try to change what she thought she might have said, but I had to call her on it because it's all in written text.  Then she apologized and we were able to have a decent conversation.   I know I joke about me talking so much that people don't hear what I say except for keywords that they are looking for, but that is exactly what happened here.  She heard "payment", "money" and "help out".  It was crazy.  I literally had to have the entire conversation all over again, but I definitely condensed it to only address those 3 words.   Things are back on track, but I emphasized that if she every needed clarification for anything, please say something first instead of jumping to conclusions, then questioning that conclusion, then answering that conclusion, then getting upset at the answer and taking it out on someone who doesn't have a clue what the San Juan Hill just happened.   But this is exactly the reason I do everything with a paper trail.
