Outlook Confusion...

Confused over which Outlook you have? Is it Mac or Windows? Only Microsoft could confuse us with sound alike names.

Microsoft Outlook Express 5 Macintosh Edition is a free e-mail program for Mac OS 8.1 to 9.x It is NOT an Office product for Windows.

Microsoft® Outlook 2001 for Mac is for Mac users on OS 8.6-9.2 or OS X (10.2.x and earlier), who need to collaborate with Windows users in an Exchange server environment. Free.

Outlook Express is also a free basic e-mail program that is included with Microsoft Internet Explorer, but it's Windows not Mac.

Then there is Microsoft Outlook® that is not free and is not a Mac product.
