If you're using Office 2008, you could see if My Day meets your needs. The default view gives you three calendar events and three tasks, but you can resize both sections (including completely hiding, so you can just not show the calendar section), and you can make the whole window as big as you want it. You can also add new tasks in My Day. It doesn't give you the full power of the Task view in Entourage (for example, you can't set categories or give start/due dates for tasks), but it's a nice quick view of your task list. I tend to use My Day for an at-a-glance view of what I need to work on and to check off tasks, and then use the Task view in Entourage for creating tasks (because I almost always want to set categories, projects, due dates, and reminders on my tasks). Entourage doesn't need to be open for My Day to work.
