  Ah, dunno if anyone else uses it but theres Trillian which can use like 5 different messengers in one.
  Unfortunately lacks a few key functions like the drawing tool in msn.
  
  But for a msger that can connect with all your different types of msgers, with low cpu usage, trillian is very good.

  It had the drawing function in an early beta, and is likely going to be added soon.
  
  I prefer Trillian, just because of the functionality, and support I've gotten with it. I can't stand any of the other multi-IM apps (I despise Digsby, because their programmer base is just purely ineffecient).

  I like skype.
  MSN pisses me off.
  
  Also for resource usage,
  skype: 2 convos with about 3 weeks of history loaded on them - ~10 MB of RAM.
  msn: nothing open, appearing offline - ~56 MB of RAM
  both at 0% CPU.
  
  Skype's chat is the best for me. The main thing is you keep your conversation groups forever until everyone exits it willingly. Closing skype or the chat window does nothing. So you can go off for days and not miss anything from your chat with a group of friends. I've had this one chat with 3 of my best friends open for over 2 years now, along with 2 years of chat history logged.
  
  Only thing I hate is the newer client. But I use the old one so I don't really care.
