[HELP] MSN Plus compatible with Macs? + A Few Qs

I recently got a Macbook and I downloaded Windows Live Messenger for Mac but I can't find a Mac version of Windows Messenger Plus because MSN at the mo is kinda dull and doesn't have coloured names and all those features. I was just wondering if it's possible?

A few more questions:
Do all games nowadays come working with Windows and Mac?
What is this computer sharing when I look at my files?
Is everything on the App Store on mac MacBook games only or is it also iPhone games etc?
Is there a way to transfer an iTunes library from a Windows computer exactly with the same song names etc or do you have to just transfer the songs with memory sticks or w/e?
Is one of those Apple Magic Mice actually worth £55
What is AirDrop?
When you drag icons from the bottom bar (forgotten what it's called lol) to the desktop screen, it disappears but where does it go?

I'll probably think or more questions but help is much appreciated :D +11Rep to helpers ;)

- No Messenger Plus for Mac

- Not all games no, they will specifically say if they work with Mac
- Computer Sharing is where you can share your files between other Macs
- The Mac App Store is Mac apps only, for iPhone etc you use the iTunes App Store, you can also download Mac apps off the internet
- Yes, just copy the entire iTunes library folder to your Mac and then add it in iTunes
- Magic Mice are nice, but it's personal preference, I wouldn't use one a lot
- AirDrop is file sharing between other Macs nearby
- When the icon disappears it just means it's not in the Dock anymore, it'll be in your Applications folder in your Finder window.

Thank you so much for that :D Also I was just on MSN (shame it's so simple) and it doesn't let me group contacts so is that possible. Also when I try and message someone who is offline it logs me out, so does anyone know why this is :S

I have a feeling you are going to hate macs.

crap msn is something you just have to put up with. My router seems to block it so can't even open it so stuck with buddy. Try other things ilk adium and amsn. I think one of them have plugins.

I'll try them but it kinda sucks that MSN doesn't allow the full version on Macs.

Anyone know how to get to the desktop screen whilst in a game on Macs. It's annoying because there is no start button and when I click the launchpad button or the show screens button nothing happens. So is there a way to get back to the desktop screen when in a game without having to quit it?

You can just swipe your trackpad to get to your desktop screen. I put my four fingers and thumb on trackpad and move my thumb away from my fingers. I hate lion so much though. Mission control is a pain in the ass. I want snow leopard :(

Lol it doesn't work via trackpad, I found out to just use command + tab.
