On the one hand, I can't even imagine how huge a challenge it must be to manage a company's PCs, especially in today's global workplace; heck, I used to work for a company with nearly 30,000 employees!

On the other hand, there are times when the lockdown can be VERY frustrating, even for something as "simple" as a browser. I had recently organized numerous focus groups around the world, costing tens of thousands of dollars, only to find out at the last minute that the Webcast system being used wasn't compatible with our corporate browsers and that our Chief Marketing Officer couldn't observe them live as planned.

Why does it seem like the technology-focused companies are often the very LAST to upgrade to new browsers, OSs, etc?
