Sorry - I spent too many years in IT trying to innovate and getting nowhere - the problem is NOT with the IT dept - but with the upper management "teams" - not to mention the fact they plonk a computer on people's desktops - neglect to train them - and then wonder why they aren't getting "value for money" from their IT spend .... - barcode, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1'Restrictions are critical for system administrators to impose on regular users.
