Best configuration to integrate with Exchange 2003 Server

[unsmashed]

What's the best way to connect to an Exchange 2003 Server?

Mail - OSX Mail?
Calendar - Does iCal integrate?
To Do List - ?
Memo Pad - ?

What Entourage vs. Non-Entourage options are there? Do most just use Entourage? Is that the best option for a new MacBook Pro recently purchased?

What about running Office 2007 under Parallels or VMWare Fusion?

Thanks for all the input - and possibly how you're doing this today!
