According to a recent Gartner seminar (where my boss went to), the "way to go" at this point in time (especially if your company is going the "Microsoft-all-the-way" route) is:
* .NET
* XML and related concepts
* SOAP / Web Services (which .NET is quite good at) and concepts like UDDI and WSDL
* Visual Basic (with .NET), which should prove little problem for those used to LotusScript (at least, going the other way, I had no problem at all).
* Learn to appreciate IIS (the MS web server), ASP.NET and Exchange. Exchange can do more than just serve e-mail (just like Domino can), and Outlook can be used as a "blended" Web / client application. Look at MS CRM or MS Outlook with Business Contact Manager for what can be achieved (the last one does not work with Exchange, though...)
