I've looked into Sharepoint and realized it would be overkill for my organization. There are lots of good resources/vendors who can give you the basic features and a fraction of the cost. Most offer no long term commitment, and no set up costs. I ended up signing up with Project Story's WebFiles (see
www.pswebfiles.com/splash/ ) but there are others out there. I'd encourage you to look around at the competitors before you go with Sharepoint. Just my two cents worth!
