Competing requirements
All we care about is that it works on USB...
No that isn't what we care about, it's providing our services in an everchanging environment at a lower cost.
It's not that it's USB, it's that all of them can be managed and kept upto date etc with one operation, with little intervention.
The days of IT types imposing new tech on the operation because it's sexy are long gone. In fact most of the drivers for change come from the business itself.
It's the need to cut bodies, or increase productivity, that runs roughshod over the secretary.
This is just some prick who got treated to a meal with a vendor, hiding behind us propeller heads.
In fact I bet there were once two secretaries, now there's one and a big lump of kit paid for by shedding an employee.
Lets not forget the real purpose of IT in business, to do more with less.
