I had heartd there were issues with Crossover & other Windoze apps...but in ur 
environment we wd only be using it for Outlook 2007. Has OL worked well for 
folks?

+1 for CrossOver. 

IIRC they have a 15-day trial, so you can make sure that the programs you need 
work. If VS 2005 would have run under it, I'd probably be using my iMac 
exclusively right now. But yeah, fast and very responsive. *cough* Even while 
playing Team Fortress 2. *cough*

If they do not have a need to use digital signatures, you can install Outlook 
on a Mac without using Parallels or VMWare Fusion or even having to boot into 
windows via boot camp.  Install CrossOver Mac from www.codeweavers.com.  Don't 
have the hassle of running windows on top of OS X or using boot camp to boot 
into windows.

My limited use so far has been rather impressive - quite quick and responsive.  
Waiting for them to get a version that will work with Access >2000.  Once they 
have that, I'll pretty much be able to drop using Parallels or boot camp.
