Cost of not keeping up with new standard HW 1) unable to meet standard OS & systems patches
2) unable to meet minimum security standards (departments with old hardware normally don’t keep up with OS and security upgrades) 3) very costly in system administration time to upgrade (both department support and SCS support) -configuring a data-less workstation on standard HW is 45 minutes -hunting for correct drivers for clones,troubleshooting problems in upgrading 486’s to SP4 can take days
