My wish is OS X version of MS Project. MS Project is much more dominant in the field of project management than Office is in general office apps. Alternatives exist, like Merlin, but most people I know and work with use MS Project under Windows and I'm expected to exchange files with them. The only solution on Mac for now is emulating PC.
MS Exchange client/server. It's an old wish, and while not a great app in itself, thousands of corporations are counting on it. It's one of the main reasons why the Mac has such a low penetration in corporate business. MS knows this, and that's why they will never release it for OSX.
It would be nice if someone (Apple ?) could make the client version, so Macs could connect to any Exchange server. But I guess it must be politics ...
As much as I cheer this item, I am sure that we will never see it. As such, I will have to continue using it on my Windows laptop. That is until I sell it to my mother and buy a Powerbook.
No. Entourage is a Mailprogram/Organiser for home use. Exchange is an industry-standard mail/organiser server app to work in conjunction with Outlook. It's used in just about every corp in the world.

It looks like your wish has been granted:

Or if it does not have 100% of the functionality of the Windows version, at least it is a start.

OS X includes an AppleScript that does just that.
Apple should include it in FontBook then. Should be easy, and a very handy feature a lot of people would like (as it was included in the ol' ATM)

It's in the Applescript example scripts (Applications/Applescript/Example scripts/Font Book/Create font sample.)

Isn't MS Entourage exactly this?

I know that. But I understand that he wanted a client for Exchange, not the server, and AFAIK Entourage can act as one.

I would prefer to get Microsoft's money instead.

In a very limited way, and that's just the point ...
