Given - but you have to recognize the usefulness - well, actually you don't.
Never mind.

Suffice to say that, a whole lot of people depend on groupware type apps to
run their business.  Notes, Exchange, Collabra, whatever - a metric buttload
of companies use these in order to function on a daily basis.

I know it doesn't make sense to a lot of people like us - but that doens't
make it bad or wrong.

Trust me, I'm no MS accolyte.  My employer (bungo.com) sells services that
operate over the web, doing a bunch of groupware-type functionality - all on
100% open source (aside from Oracle but that may change soon) and in-house
software.

The primary desktop OS at the office?  Linux.  The runner up, MacOS.
Windows is used, but mostly by developers that use them because the version
of $DEV_TOOL they prefer is available on Windows.  Oh, the sales guys use
Windows and Office because that's what the majority of our prospective
clients use - and they *must* be *assured* that they are able to *completely
and effectively* communicate *100%* with them.
