[Zach Stern]

Well what microsoft is required to do and what they actually do are not always or even usually the same thing.

What alternative, if any, does apple offer for groupware?

I think we're beating dead horses here, but my big hope as far as this 
stuff goes, is that Apple's increasing market share may force Microsoft 
to be a little more accommodating when it comes to support for 
standards-based systems.  Don't they have to offer interoperability 
documentation for Exchange now as a result of the EU conviction?
