Google Offers Exchange on Exchange

It's no secret that Google wants nearly all that Microsoft has -- productivity software, operating systems, browsers and, more recently, enterprise mail.

Google Apps, which includes hosted e-mail, has snagged a few high profile customers, and now Google is hungry for more.

Migration is always a bear, and Google hopes to ease the move with Google Apps Migration for Microsoft Exchange.

The idea is to keep Exchange running while the mailboxes are migrated to Google. Google claims it's a piece of cake that only requires four steps. Exchange is a pretty rich and complex product, so I'm guessing it’s not that simple.
