To be more precise, they have a PC-only client, and in fact if I recall
rightly, it's *Windows*-only. However, they're using a Jabber server,
and you have a choice of Jabber clients. See http://www.jabber.org for
details. Having said that, I should also add that I've read posts from
at least two people on our local LUG trying Gaim to connect to Google's
IM server and getting grief. Theory is that Google's Jabber setup still
has a few rough edges.

Regards.
