Not exactly on-topic or indeed of interest to anyone here, but Outlook 2010 actually does come with a new conversation view (it's been rolled out at my workplace). Not that I particularly like the way they've implemented it, tho.
This is, coincidentally, at the same time that Google have said they'll finally provide an option to disable their own conversation view in GMail - something they've been unwilling to do for several years, despite user requests.

Google seem summat weird lately ... On a few Google Groups which I use, which have areas called "Files" and "Pages" where users can upload files, I lately found the message [excerpted]:
"Google Groups will no longer be supporting the Pages and Files features. Starting November 1, you won't be able to upload new content, but you will still be able to view and download existing content. See this announcement for more information and other options for storing your content." [...] "If you would like to keep the content currently on the pages and files sections of your group, we highly encourage you to export and migrate it to another product. In February 2011, we will turn off the pages and files features, and you will no longer be able to access that content."
This might seem to be simply a desire to cut back on space usage. But the invitation to place the content elsewhere in the Google system would seem to contradict that ("another product" is elsewhere described as being a choice from amongst several Google resources).
So maybe it is a devious plot to entangle Googler users ever deeper in a Shelob's Web ...
