I like the idea of an AppleInsider chat room. iChat makes this very easy. I'm not so sure about the subjects changing everyhour, though. Maybe rooms like AppleInsider-FH (future hardware), AppleInsider-SW (software), etc. That way we can have each forum in its own room. That way you dont need to change the topic each hour, and you can have them up all the time.
<strong>That would be my only hope of going in there - don't have Jaguar yet....</strong><hr></blockquote>The regular "official" AIM client works just fine, AFAICT.
Though, if you have an AOL account, you can use it instead.
Edit: I just tried connecting through the official AIM client and it seems that you can't arbitrarily join a chat room as you can with iChat. You have to be invited by someone already there to get in. Strange.

I just invite myself to get into the AI chat room when I go in there.
IRC? iChat? How the heck do you join a chat room with iChat? And what address???

This works with iChat or the standard AIM client, Mulattabianca.
