$$ is the factor
Our company doesn't have the $$ to continually by new hardware, new software, new operating systems every couple of years. We also do not have a reson to move to a wireless solution as we don't have 100s of administrative people roaming around the company with their laptops.

What our IT department sees is hype and sales ploys that tug on competitiveness with pitches that play the "keeping up with the Jones next door" game or "your a loser if you don't have the latest and greatest".

Simply put those that sell IT stuff is a business. Those of use who use it, its just a tool. We simply don't have the $$ to continually buy new, very expensive, hip tools when the old ones work just fine for us.
