[QUOTE="Interactive, post: 1467311, member: 281870"] Yes, sorry for the confusion, I wasn't totally clear. I am using the Office for Mac 2011 solution now and in general it's a pretty nice suite of apps obviously making most aspects of the transition easier. But the Mac version doesn't seem to permit add-ins like the Windows version does so my experience is less than complete compared with my Windows set up. As with many applications, I'm probably only using 10% of the functionality. More organized people than me, particularly those with project work, will appreciate the full functionality with project organizing inside Outlook. It's not a replacement for MS Project (it's not intended to be) but it's a great way to tie all of the clutter in Outlook together by project. My other option, and one I'm seriously considering, is Fusion/Win7/Office for Windows. Based on recommendations I've seen all over the web, the Mac traditionalist encourage sticking with as much native Mac as possible, but I may have to have a slower migration to that state than others. :\ [/QUOTE]
