    I voted No, I think Windows Live is better. The main reason is that Windows Live, being a separate program, can be updated on a schedule different than the OS. That should speed up improvements. I also like the current layout versus the old Windows Mail from Vista.

    That's a good point and that's the main reason I don't use Windows mail, personally I prefer Windows Live Mail and even then I really only use Windows Live Hotmail through my Browser, I still think it good to have choice though for the people who do like it.

    Hi Mark,

    I had to choose the fourth option, but only because I don't use either Windows Mail or Live Mail. Maybe "i use something else " may have been a better Fourth option (or additional Fifth)
