- Installation of multiple operating systems in a dual boot
- or virtual machine configuration (such as VMWare) also
- increases licensing and administration costs. Users
- often complain that such a system is inconvenient, slow,
- and not integrated with the rest of their operating
- system.
+ Public folders, posting to folders, and delegation
+ functions have been added. You may now set permissions on
+ folders to which you have appropriate access, and view the
+ folders of other users who have granted you permission to
+ view them.

- Outlook Web Access is a web interface for Exchange
