Computer Replacement!

Essex, United Kingdom(Zone 9a)

I used to be an IT Manager in Local Government ( loved it! - but am now retired :)) ) - I'm still interested in what's going on in the world of IT & recently I was sent this from my sister who is also in government IT

"To All Staff

There are a lot of changes that are going to be taking place across the Council as far as the Computers go.
The Goal for all Council Departments is to remove all Computers by January 2004 as an on going cost cutting exercise within ALL Council Departments.

Instead everyone will be provided with an Etch-A-Sketch.

There are many good reasons for doing this,

1 No boot up problems.
2 No Technical Glitches keeping work form being done.
3 No more wasted time reading Emails.
4 No more worries about power cuts.
5 Budget savings on upgrades/breakdowns is unparalleled.
