Sometimes managing calendars and corporate schedules can be
a pain in 
the ass. I don't see how groups like Intel could do it any
other way..

For smaller groups though, it isn't as necessary, yes..

Besides, I still like my Thunderbird / pine .

I think it could be more accurately stated that Intel, among
others,
follow the money. I am sure if Intel could be shown a
comparable
business design that would generate a similar bottom line,
they would
seriously consider it. Nobody is going to throw resources at
a losing or
revenue neutral venture.
