Subject: [libreoffice-users] Re: Can Libre Office be installed on an
external drive. ?
I notice some people are talking about Thunderbird and other alternatives
to Outlook. I should probably remind some people that Outlook is not just a
mail client. It has a Calendar, Tasks manager, voting system, and>a few
other titbits that all exist within the same application which gives it a
very high level of integration. The problem is that this integration is very
important for a lot of people in the corporate world, and an ad hoc
bundling of various applications to do the same stuff but not quite as well
integrated might not sit well with some people, particularly if you can't
give the same level of functionality.
Outlook is what it is not just for the email side of things.
This is precisely why outlook is the only MS application I have installed on
my work machines. Apart from development environments, VS 2003,2005,2008&
2010 and what comes bundled with windows stupid .... I mean windows 7. Most
of which I don't use anyway.
With the entire company using an MS exchange server and sharing calendars
and contacts I'm forced to use outlook. Let's face it, not everything
microsoft do is bad. Just most things.
The problems with Microsoft come when you have bulk licencing agreements and
are forced to install their products to comply with their licences. Then
management says "We're paying for the licence, we may as well use it." This
makes change very difficult.
