 | | Linux company Ximian is helping to fuel corporate interest in Linux as a desktop alternative with its products Ximian Evolution and Ximian Connector, which work in tandem to provide an Outlook client alternative for the Linux platform. |
 | | Evolution is a work-in-progress by definition, and there are a still few things needed for the application to boast 100 percent compatibility. |
 | | The Evolution client is free, but you still need to purchase an Exchange Client Access License (CAL) for each Evolution client that accesses your Exchange server, and on top of that the Connector runs $69 per seat--all told, the cost is nearly the same as running Outlook 2002. |
