Lotus Notes is horrible which is something you will soon find out.
Linux has signed a deal with the devil and you will find that out in good
time as well.
OpenOffice is slow as it is now, when IBM gets through grafting poor
Lotus code on top of it not only will the interface be like nothing
you've ever used before the program will crawl like a snail.
Save this post because it will happen.
Oh and you better make plenty of room for those Notes *.nsf files that
Notes likes to scatter all over the place. And these files are HUGE.
