I've always used AOL email and have had few complaints other than at times a 
bit slow, perhaps because I have dsl (except with big downloads when I go to
McD's free wifi which is at least 4X faster usually).  AOL works for me with
Mac OSX, Windows XP,Vista,W7, & CE for PPC; and here using Ubuntu 11.10.
