    iChat Google Talk Instruction. use port 5223

    1. Start iChat
    2. Go to Preference
    3. click the "+" sign to add a new account, change the account type to Jabber
    4. user name: yourname@gmail.com
    password: yourpassword
    server: talk.google.com
    port: 5223 (this is the default.)
    5. you're talking on Google Talk!!!

    NOTE:
    I got iChat to work under port 5223, the Mac default port. 5222 failed to work for me for some reason. If you read the other post, most Jabber client are recommended to use 5222. Might be a iChat only thing.

    ps. Mac rocks, let's kill MSN together

    Thanks for the great tip, neo_dragon_kai! Google has also posted some screen shots and step-by-step instructions for iChat users.
