Does it actually do nothing or does it say iChat in the upper left hand next to the Apple. I only ask because a friend had a similar experiance switching from Windows. The program might be running but no window is appearing because you haven't yet set up a userid for it.
You need to input your AIM/.Mac account details into iChat's preferences before anything starts showing up...have you done this?
And congratulations on your new PB!

Like the other posters have said if you see iChat displayed on the menu bar next to the blue Apple logo you may need to go to the preferences item and add your account name and password. Once you have managed to set it up, if you need someone to test it with you are welcome to IM me. My details on in my profile. Happy chatting.

Glad you got it sorted out
You'll get the hang of the 'Mac' way eventually but you know where to come if you run into any more trouble, after using the search button of course!
