RE: Exchange VS Lotus Notes/Domino??

I have a client which is a Hospital that the DP Manager is an old IBM as400 
fan.  I have installed 4 w2k servers that serve as; 1) firewall 2) application 
3) Domain Controller and 4) File Server.  Most of the users, use Outlook or 
Outlook Express.  Currently they have no mail server or web server.  They do 
not want them in-house.  All the DP manager wants, is to use Lotus for 
calendering and internal mail and will load on their current as400.  The cost 
is tremenduous, over 100k, to emplement 600 users.  

Exchange has to be less expensive, and since their users currently use outlook 
anyway, the installation and implemention should be fairly seemless.

I just need some ammo to convince their administration of the poor choice of 
going with Lotus.   And the multitude of pro's for going with Exchange.

TIA,

Kerry

  Hmmmm.....where do I start?  Have you ever used Lotus notes?  Do you like 
pain and suffering?  I can't give you technical advise between the two, but 
I've had the experience of using both Outlook and Notes R5.  Outlook is easier 
to use, and more logical in its workings.  The only other thing to say is that 
when I used Lotus Notes, I likened it to walking through waist deep mud.  I 
can't tell you the difference between the server end of both, only Exchange.

    Can someone sell me on why I should use Exchange instead of Lotus??

    Cost?, Emplementation?, User Training?, Administration?, ETC.??
