The main problem is all the 3rd party applications written

Interesting, I didn't come across such things in my company
Also is the tight integration w/ other MSFT products like
SQL Server, Exchange and SharePoint. There are slso some functions
in Excel that are missing from OOo Calc, and Presentation probably
isn't as full-featured as Powerpoint.
Are those features *really* needed? (just asking, I don't have much
experience here)
I work in a *large* company. Someone must use them, or the
companies that make them wouldn't be in business.
Especially the companies that make financially-oriented apps for
bean counters.
Lastly, Excel, Word, IE & Lookout just launch faster than Calc,
Write, FF & Tbird.
That's too bad.
I'd suffer though Tbird's bloat if it had a *direct* (not OWA)
interface to AD, Exchange email and calendar, but there isn't.
Did you try evolution-mapi? I didn't get to it (yet).
I mean on my work PC running Windows.
