When to replace older windows XP and windows Vista/7 machines.
What I'm trying to do is develop a set of minimum requirements for systems. Anything below those requirements get replaced. I have one set for XP and a different set for Vista/7.
In my opinion the requirements from Microsoft are way too low so I've put together the following. Most of our users are using internet, Microsoft office, FileZilla, UPS world ship, and similar software.
Here are the requirements I've come up with. Again anything below this line gets replaced. Thoughts?
XP:
- 512 MB Ram
- 1 GHz Pentium 4 or 1GHz AMD Athlon
- 80 GB hard drive
- DVD Rom
Vista/7
- 2GB RAM
- 1 GHz Core Two Duo
- 100 GB hard drive
- DVD Rom
Monitors: 17 inch LCD
