Billie, I too was a big Firefox and Thunderbird fan until they got a bit unstable and Chrome came out, switched and the rest is history. Now if I could just get my new IPad to talk to my Windows I'd be in seventh heaven. Big learning curve with IPad sometimes wonder why I even have it. Computer Engineer son and computer guru husband can't understand my problem with IPad, they thought it would be so much better than lugging a 4lb LapTop around. Me, I'll take my LT.
