Novell has released a new version of GroupWise, its answer to Microsoft's ubiquitious Outlook/Exchange collaboration suite.
Microsoft's next release of Office for Mac, due in January, will include business features that PC users have taken for granted for years.
As Apple Computer introduced its own productivity software Tuesday, Microsoft reiterated its commitment to the Mac market and said sales of its Mac Office package are growing.
A headline like that is bound to draw the ire of the Macintosh faithful. After all, since Microsoft, which can marshal its forces and target competitors at will with lethal precision, hasn't finished-off Apple after all these years (and I'm not saying that this was necessarily a Redmond goal), how on earth can an operating system like Linux spell trouble for Apple?
A Macworld presentation by Kevin Browne, general manager of Microsoft's Macintosh Business Unit, featured multiple product announcements, including MSN Messenger 2.0 and Windows Media Player for Mac OS X. There was even an overview of how Microsoft's plans for its upcoming .Net strategy would dovetail with the Mac world.
Just a few weeks ago I took possession of a shiny black MacBook, which was running like a dream till our IT guys insisted I join the corporate Microsoft Exchange domain and dump Thunderbird for Microsoft Entourage.
In my last blog post, I described some latency issues that appeared on my MacBook once our IT department installed Entourage and Exchange. This led to Microsoft getting in touch to try and help me out but in the end the problems were solved by ditching Entourage in favour of Apple's Mail.
Most people agree that IBM's Lotus Notes product is one of the most advanced and popular collaboration suites out there.
If you're considering an upgrade to Entourage 2008, think again -- for some reason, Microsoft hasn't bothered to add some vital functions that are critical to making Apple Mac systems welcome on any Exchange network.
Telstra's T-Suite shows great promise. But users would be wise to note that there are still many bugs the telco and its partners are yet to iron out.

COMMENTARY--Is Microsoft going to kill Apple Computer? Some may say it's already happened, at least from looking at the relative dominance of Windows over Apple's Mac OS. But I'm talking about Microsoft pulling the plug on Office and Internet Explorer for Mac OS.
Technology is allowing workers to stay in contact no matter where they are. How do you choose the right combination of hardware, software, data transport, and voice transport, then secure the whole lot and make sure your organisation is set up to take advantage?
A new upgrade allows users of Office for the Mac to access e-mail, calendar entries and addresses stored on a corporate Exchange server.

If you work on both the Mac and Windows platforms, it's worth sacrificing some ease of use with StuffIt Deluxe 8.5 for Windows.

A friend of mine is starting a new business. I get to choose which computer he's going to use. Question is: Should we go with the PC or the Mac? Here's what I think.
