They still haven't started implementing Oscar protocal for AIM. Their crippled aim plugin is not a very good motivation for people who use aim exclusively to use Miranda over AimMutation. I'll stick with my 20mb memory hogs for now.

Gaim would be great if:

-File transfers worked with AIM users
-Connecting to share images worked with AIM users
-It didn't crash whenever I changed my theme in XP, or at other random times. It was incredibly unstable and I think that they really need to work on that.

Those few problems aside, gaim is the best AIM client around. Too bad the windows version has very little stability.

Aimmutation is fairly good if you don't mind the extra 10-15MB that it uses of miranda or gaim. It has most of the same features as game and it doesn't crash constantly.
