IE and OE got a divorce and IE moved on to IE7 and got renamed and retooled
for Vista.

If you get any computer with XP on it, it will have OE6.

Hi Steve,

Clarified question: If the new laptop I am ordering from Dell Small
Business division has XP Professional, and IE 7 installed, will it also
include OE6?

I know IE6 always had OE6 bundled within it (not true w/ IE7?). I just
don't want to go through the process of ordering a new laptop w/ XP Pro
and
finding out it doesn't have OE6 installed.

Thanks in advance for your clarification!!

OE6 is unchanged whether or not you have IE7. They have branched apart
and
the IE7 updates don't include any OE updates except some printing bug and
other problems. The files OE uses are unchanged.

If you get Vista, then you get the next rendition of OE which they've
called
Windows Mail.

It looks like I'm going to have to replace my laptop very shortly
(crashing
too often). Dell Small Business (who our company buys from), gives the
option of getting XP Pro and Vista.

If I get a new laptop with XP Pro, it apparently comes with IE7
pre-installed.

1) How would I go about getting OE 6 without using or downloading IE6?
2) Do new XP systems being shipped now aside from including IE7 also
have
included OE 6?

Thanks in advance for your help!!
