[Blindtlk] pros and cons of Outlook vs Gmail

[Aaron Allen]

I think you have to obtain Outlook through the purchase of Microsoft Office

I don't think it is available as a stand-alone product.

I could be wrong.

If you find otherwise, please letme know.

Thanks!

Aaron

Thanks, Nikki! Now, is Windows Live Mail for Windows 7 accessible? If
not, how do I get Outlook on my computer?
