Because you get 1GB of FREE storage, as opposed to Yahoo or Hotmail where you only get maybe 10MB. For anyone who can't do math, that's 100 times the storage. THAT's why Gmail is good.
Oh, and I have 10 invites if anyone wants one.

Except Yahoo and Hotmail raised their limits recently to compete with Gmail. Hotmail went from 2MB to 250MB and I think Yahoo did something similar.
Gmail's search function can't be beat though

alright I now understand the reson people would want one if what jackfrost just said it true

how almost is almost?

Almost would be like 999.998mb as I doubt you can get the whole 1gb. The other plus about Gmail accounts is you can use it is as a remote server. TSS have an article about how to put all that space to good use.
