I have a yahoo account and 99.999 percent of the email I get there is "junk"
and if it wasn't for yahoo groups and such, I would probably just close my
yahoo id/account.

I see no disadvantages to using Gmail as a conventional email 
account and do find it advantageous that messages are retained on 
google for subsequent searching.

There is however one major disadvantage to a gmail account.  The 
attachment size limit is something like 3 megs.  Conversely, 
yahoo's attachment size limit is I think 10 megs.

I disagree. I use the pop feature of gmail and all the messages 
that I've
downloaded are still on gmail, should I ever need to go there and 
find
something. This means I can still search and all that you 
mentioned and
still use the more accessible way of getting my mail via a pop 
client like
Outlook.

Yes, it can but using POP this way kinda defeats the purposes of 
having
a gmail account.  gmail offers all kinds of labeling and search
capabilities that triditional POP mail clients just can't do.
