  1. iCal is oookkk... by ToadSprocket · · Score: 2, Insightful

    But what about some compatibility with other vendors? We run a different calendaring solution corporate wide where I work (no, not exchange). The only way to tie into iCal on my Mac is to do a daily dump of my entries in standard format(forget what it is offhand), and then an import into an iCal server. I suppose I could live with it, except that when you the import it just doubles up any entries you have existing already, and doesn't do any checks for duped entries and what not. Seems very shoddy. I guess iCal is fine if you only have iCal, but what about tying it into other Calendaring products? I know, I know. Apple and coexistence with other vendors are mutually exclusive. I'll take it elsewhere. BAH!
