:?:

I need advice on which of the most current Windows desktop search products to use with an aging Thinkpad R40 (Centrino 1.4GHz / 512mb shared)? I generally search emails but need something that can do it with minimal impact to my already sluggish pc (priority), and with a usable (low-learning curve) interface.

Any suggestions? If not, do you happen to know a good place to look?
