What's the best multi-protocol instant messaging client software, Trillian or Gaim?

I use trillian, but I don't really like any of the multi-protocol IM clients very much.

I'm using Trillian for almost a year now and there's only one occassion that I had a problem. This was fixed with a released update for AIM/ICQ users.

What's the real benefit to using these over plain on Yahoo or AIM?

A multi-protocol software allow you to log in to multiple accounts on multiple IM networks simultaneously and chat with people on ICQ, MSN Messenger, Yahoo!, IRC channel, Jabber, Yahoo Messenger all at the same time.

I hate Trillian. It doesn't load up nicks correctly.
