Anyone know how to place a entourage calendar on line to share it? But we want to just show BUSY without the appointment/schedule details.
Like Google Calendar does - but with Entourage.

I'm familiar with it. It's Outlook for the Mac. ;-) Used it for a while when I was a Mac guy (meds helped, now I'm cured).
BTW, final days for my last standing Windows PC. Moving all my data to external HDs. Then, ZAP! In goes Ubuntu, and my Windows era is done for now.

I actually decided to keep my one last Win machine going.
But seriously, Linux is good to go. It is extremely engaging, fast as a mad dog, and a lot of fun to use. And everything is free.

I still keep a foot in multiple camps, but most of my real work is (and
has been for years now) in Linux. I need a few Windows VMs, but...
I still use MS Office via Wine or CrossOver Office depending on the version of MS Office. I'd do this in the cloud, on-site most of the time I don't have Internet access on my computer. That makes cloud computing difficult. :-)

Don't you and RBL consult or work with companies who use only Windows
pc's? Do you really think you
can keep up enough knowledge to continue to support them totally on
Linux? I don't know I do play with Linux and like it a lot,
but my business is on XP, Vista and Windows 7 and occasionally I have
to do something on a Win 98 pc and I am completely lost.
Doesn't that scare you? It sure would me! I am afraid to take the XP
pc offline as most of my clients use that.

Rich,
Since I've been doing it for years, I'll ask you if you believe I can keep up the knowledge...
That said I gave up package-, operating system-, or language-based computing more than a decade ago. That might be a reasonable business for some, I prefer to play in non-commodity markets.
re: "Doesn't that scare you?"
I can't understand why people are afraid of new ideas or new approaches. I frightened by adherence to the old ones. The phrase that Rich L has in his signature from Adm Grace Hopper "The most damaging phrase in the language is, 'We've always done it this way,'" resonates with me on so MANY many levels.

Make that gave up package-, operating system-, and / or langauge-based
CONSULTING more than a decade ago... :-)

I have been on Microsoft OSes since MS-DOS 1.0. I know this stuff like the back of my hand, right down to the API calls. Moreover, I can troubleshoot Linux pretty darn well, and when i run into something that I can't deduce, I ask David.

Lastly, I maintain Windows images in VMs.
I'm a COMPUTER consultant, not a WINDOWS consultant. I don't have to use Windows 24x7 to troubleshoot if for people.

Rich,
Excellent point...
Like you I've never been a package anything consultant (though I did earn a fair amount of money from work in the OS/2 space). Even with that, I've been a technology consultant, not a package consultant, since I went independent a long time ago.
As I said in my original response to RichM's message, and to put it more simply: What scares me isn't the new stuff, new things, or new ideas; what scares me is not being able to learn, to adapt, to try new things. I've never been a "confined to the box" thinker; the very concept of sticking to something merely because it's there...
I meant what I said, the quote you have in your signature is pretty much the way I've tried to live my life. Rear Admiral Grace Hopper is absolutely one of my heroes. The quote you have:

and these:
"A ship in port is safe, but that is not what ships are for. Sail out to sea and do new things."
"If it's a good idea, go ahead and do it. It's much easier to apologize than it is to get permission."
"You manage things; you lead people."
... and this just scratches the surface of the person who helped name the computer bug, was responsible for COBOL (and with it the idea of language compilers), the visual nano-second and so much more.
Try new things... :-)

I would add that, without making major commitments to all significant
platforms, your value as a consultant is reduced. Being able to speak
with informed authority about platforms other than the latest Windows
OS makes one far more informed, experienced, worldy, and, as a result,
more valuable to the client, and competitive in the marketplace.
platforms, your value as a consultant is reduced. Being able to speak

I didn't earn the nickname "Dr. Johnny Megabye" by ignoring all
platforms except those from Microsoft. I have made "all-in"
commitments to MS-DOS; DeskView; Windows 1, 2, 3, 95, NT, 2000, XP,
Vista, and 7; Mac OS System 7, 8, 9; NextStep; and now, Linux via
Ubuntu.
I have also made an all-in commitment to the cloud, and everything
that goes along with that: Chrome, Docs, Tasks, Cal, etc. Sticking
with Microsoft Office teaches me and gains me nothing. Been there,
done that, got the T-shirt and the free laptop case.
I have made all-in commitments to various programming languages over
the year (currently, PHP+MySQL).
I have made all-in commitments to different browsers (IE, Netscape,
Opera, SeaMonkey, Firefox, Chrome, more). Ditto e-mail clients and
office suites.
Only by going "all in" can one truly learn. And for me, personally,
the learning is why I do this. The consulting and the support are
positive outgrowths, but I love discovering new things, and mastering
a new OS and everything that goes with that.
Going all-in isn't easy. Things can be baffling. But the fun is in the
mastery, and leveraging all of your skills to get to some new and even
higher skill level.

Not just wordily... credibility.
I think I've used nearly every PC-based operating system including several you didn't mention, CP/M, CPM/86, AppleDOS, UCSD Pascal, Commodore, Atari, Exidy, Xenix, AIX, and I don't know how many different distros of Linux... and, did I mention OS/2? :-))
That said, I admit a less than "all-in" approach (though my "less" is probably what others might consider all-in :-)) given that I've always got several learning projects going at any one time. This makes it difficult to be 100% all-in to any one of them. However, from the perspective of constant reinvention to keep pace with changing concepts, ideas, trends, processes, technology, that IS an all-in affair for me. I said during PC-Talk broadcast, and probably here: I'll stop learning when I'm dead; until that time an excellent day is a day I've learned something new. An absolutely outstanding day is when I can learn something AND help someone else do the same! I don't have many days that aren't excellent! :-) In fact, I really don't remember the last day that wasn't!

Heh. I drew the line at MS-DOS. I can also take it back to the mid-1970s (1975 to be precise). I wouldn't say I was a guru on all of those OSes, but I did use most of those that you listed. I developed commercial software for the Atari (you can find my ads and reviews in the old Atari magazines).
