The muliple tab email program is a great idea….just doesn’t seem that the programmers in which they employ are smart enough to make it stop malfunctioning and disapointing the public. But countless people are returning to the stone age of the 9.5 version or simply not using them at all and going somewhere else for free. It’s like putting doo-doo on top of doo-doo! Just a fresher version!!!ĪOL is a big company and for the life of me I wonder what the corporate executives are doing that they wither don’t know or simply don t care about the quality of thier AOL Desktop version which SHOULD be thier best of the best. I mean what are these IT guys doing? I mean are they just kicking back and raking in a paycheck? It’s all over the internet that the program fails to work and then they just come out with yet another version that doesn’t work either! Then it just says ‘AOL has failed to respond’ once again a server issue. The Emails are usually the 1st to not be able to connect to the servers. I mean its no secret that they have had problems with every single version of Desktop they have come out with. Do they really understand what a poor reputation they have? It almost seems as though they just don’t care! What a shame. You can download the new AOL Desktop for Mac right here.ĪOL’s ‘Desktop’ is thier most modern software but they seem to have some real ametuers working in the sites functionality. If you ever want to chat, you can find me under my AIM ID – applegazette New users may want to give it a try as well. Its free, and a must-have for current AOL users. The software will work with Tiger or Leopard, and both Intel and PPC Macs. The last version of AIM on Mac that I tried was a jumbled mess that I couldn’t even use because of the constant advertising bombardment on it, but this new version is slick, lean, and has nice features like tabbed chat that make it very useable and friendly.

The new AOL Messenger is a vast improvement. Mac – but if you’re a current AOL user, or looking for a more desktop like experience with a web-based email address, you may want to give it a look. I won’t be switching to an AOL email account anytime soon because I have. The new Mail App looks very much like Apple Mail (with the notable exception of an extremely annoying banner ad at the bottom of the application.) It’s easy to use, and efficient. It beat out Safari and Firefox in tests on my Macbook Pro. The new AOL Web Bowser, which is based on Webkit and looks very similar to Safari, is the fastest browser I’ve ever used on my Mac.

They have created an interesting all-in-one mail, messaging, and browsing experienced that is clearly been well thought out, and designed specifically for a great Mac experience. I have to commend the team at AOL that have developed the new AOL Desktop for Mac.
