I decided to scrap their iteration of WINE in favor of going hardcore and (hopfully) becoming an better Wine user for it :>). I have RTFMed, I poked around in the archives but as there is not a search function on the entire list archive I gave up after a few months reading.

I think IBM stated they want to have 40% of their desktops running linux
within a year.  Hopefully that means they´ll provide linux clients for
their pc app´s to the rest of us.  As for Outlook, won´t ¨Ximian
Connector for Microsoft Exchange 2003¨ work?  They claim it that it
does, though I´ve never used it.
