4. Our office switched from Entourage to Lotus Notes yesterday, and words cannot describe how much I hate the new system. It's as intuitive as a President Bush and as pleasant to be around as a Christian fundamentalist. I'm shocked to find myself defending a Microsoft product, but Lotus Notes is so slow and clumsy and lacking in functional relevance that it makes me want to hurt someone. For instance: You cannot shift-click to highlight a block of items in your inbox; you have to click on each item individually -- which is a total friggin' pain in the ass. And when you finish setting up a vacation message, you're given an OK button and a SAVE button -- two options that, it would seem, would give you the same result. So why the two buttons? Only the programmers know for sure.
