Microsoft announced this week that over one million people have actively
downloaded and installed Outlook 98 since it began offering the temporarily
free product last month. The free give-away ends June 30th. After that,
Outlook 98 will cost about $100. Outlook 98 is Microsoft's latest and
greatest email and collaboration client. It replaces Outlook 97, which was
included as part of Office 97.
"Our goal with Outlook 98 was to take e-mail to the next level by providing
an incredibly powerful combination of great Internet e-mail support and
integrated information management," said George Meng, group product
manager for Microsoft Office. "From the incredible number of downloads that
we've already experienced and numerous rave reviews, it's exciting to see
confirmation that we're delivering on that goal."
