Re: Risk Management

So you have IT manager who are SO derelict in their duties that they don't ever think that a computer system needs to be upgraded from time to time, which means that they HAVE TO provide a budget for maintenance and upgrades?

What will they do when their 20 years old computers will fail and newer ones won't be able to run WinXP?

How is it MS fault?
