Have a look at The Entourage Help Page for a Windows to Mac conversion 
list of options. <http://entourage.mvps.org/cross_platform/win_mac.html>

If you're both using an Exchange Server in your company then both 
Outlook and Entourage can connect and share mail, calendar items and 
contacts with the same account.

Hope this helps! bill
