Not sure about getting out to europe with work (we do have offices in the US, Aus, India and Canada though), but I may well be popping over to belgium for a weekend...

Much of the slowness has been donw to the fact I didn't get replication properly setup. It does still take about 3-5 seconds to delete an email which is annoying to me (I'm used to immediate deletion in Thunderbird). I think Notes is perfect in a enterprise setting where you are acutally using its more powerfull features as we are (e.g. resource management, expenses, timesheets). Just using it as a mail client is overkill of the highest order however. Nope – its a Dell. Much of the slowness has been donw to the fact I didn’t get replication properly setup.

But if your nice shiny new laptop is a Mac, that would explain Notes' slowness... we're still second class citizens in the Notes world.
