Binos,

Microsoft have decided not to support Video or Audio on the Mac version of MSN Messenger, so you can't do it. However, people can get a free "screenname" from AOL Instant Messenger which can be used with iChat, as the backbone network for iChat is AIM. This way, it is possible to use video and audio chat with PC users using your iSight and iChat. One doesn't always have to be forced into submission by Microsoft, and the AOL/iChat solution works fine.

The Mac development of OpenOffice has stalled. When I last tried it out (around a year ago), it was nowhere near as developed as the other versions, which is a shame, as it is a good application on other platforms.
