The problem is that the apple version doesn't say "Microsoft" at the top. I know, this is a stupid joke, but I'm only half kidding. A coworker stormed into my office today livid because he needed microsoft office, not open office. "It's free! It's SHIT!", he screamed while throwing his hands into the air. I walked into his department and had him show me, on one of the other machines (which had MS office installed) what he was trying to do. I then walked over to his machine and pressed LITERALLY the exact same series of menus and buttons to get EXACTLY the same result. (it was excel vs OO.o calc). He had never even tried. Perhaps I should start lying to my users and telling them that Open Office costs $1000 per seat. I bet they would beg me for it then. As far as mail clients go. Get thunderbird and stop even thinking about the fact that you're using a mail client.
