AOL has released a brand new version of AIM for Macs through its beta website. No, this is not Aim 4.7 that was released several years ago, this is a brand new 2008 version that follows behind Aim 6 for Windows. Though this has been released a while ago, the  lack of advertising has Mac users still complaining about Aim 4.7.

Feature List

• Customize Aim icons, Wallpapers, and Emoticons, and Sounds
• Tabbed IMs just like Aim 6
• Aim Groups, Aim Blast, Aim Chats
• Aim File Transfer even while buddy is away
• Friendly/Nickname support
• Full Offline IM support

Feedback & Bugs

While this product is in beta, expect some bugs to appear. Background color for text may not show up. Offline IMs may appear twice. Generally users have been very happy with this release, so Mac users should try it out too if you dislike iChat or Adium.
