Portable Google Calender

So We'd like to get a better calendar program at work than outlook. The issue is people don't like maintaining personal calendars and division calendars. I suggested to my boss that something similar to Google calendar where you can simply check the boxes next to peoples names and overlay the calendars would be very useful. The problem is our systems are a completely internal network. We have no access to the outside and Google's servers. So any suggestions for good stand alone calendar software?

A google appliance if you will.

The easiest way is to create an AD account for the dept/division; "Accounting Calendar," then when somebody in Accounting wants to use it, they just invite Ms. Accounting Calendar. You can add the calender to Outlook by File -> Add Calendar. (something like that).
It's a pain in the next when creating an entry to have to invite 4 different calender's, Plus my boss wants something that is people independent and that they don't need to think about. In addition when you bring up two monthly calender's it brings them up side by side, so you can't really see what's going on in either calendar.

Right click the calendar name on the left and choose "View in Overlay Mode."
