Is this really true.  As one of several steps to get around Entourage
2008's terrible impact on performance of the rest of my system, I have
disabled office notifications.  At least invoking the "synchronize
now" function seems to transfer events to my iMac calendar.  However,
I have also had to set options to "Entourage overwrites MAC" (or
whatever it is called) since I do not trust Entourage not to duplicate
all my calendar events.

Two questions:

1. Am I confused about something?
2. WHEN is Microsoft likely to fix the duplicating event bug?

A third question might be "are there good alternatives to Entourage
that will still sync to our Exchange data base?", but I am skeptical
that  Microsoft will be anxious to answer that one.
