Gmail brough large mail boxes when yahoo and Hotmail were offering peanuts. Of course other prviders were offering large mailboxes before gmail, but they're to small to count.2. Gmail has only text ads. Yahoo has full flash animations which are totally distracting and annoying whil reading mail.3. Gmail allowed free smtp and pop mail access to their accounts when yahoo was making people pay for it.I never really game Hotmail a chance, so I don't have any opinion either way.

Yahoo! is way much better, at least for me!! So yes it will be sad if Microsoft took over. Ah.. and in the cartoon the Yahoo! guy looks geeky! hehehe I love that!
