Activating Google Apps. The option to activate the office software involved either uploading a file to a hosted domain, OR making a cname entry with a special code. Clever! I did the cname entry. I’m up to activing the email, and you have to make a series of MX records. Look at how many backup mailservers they use! Wow, given the flakiness of the email systems at previous employers (current one excepted), I don’t know why most companies wouldn’t opt for Google hosted email, and gain the power of their spam-filters and searchable email.
