This one came from one of our techs as he was describing an old (10 year old) notebook that was not cooperating on a new network. Just think about the change in technology over the last ten years with your cell phone, your TV and your car. So how can you expect a 10 year old notebook to work on a new network? Keep it to use as a word processor (but save your work somewhere else) or as a door stop, but don’t expect to use its old extinct carcass in a business environment unless you want to pay us to babysit it. I may sound harsh but I am to be your advocate when it comes to making good IT decisions and I can not recommend throwing money at obsolete equipment.
