Another survey question for you - the results are private and not connected with your account, so please vote! If you don't have a job, please don't vote in the survey - just click the DISCUSS link to see the results. Thank you!

We're about 12-15,000 in the US (hard to keep up, with all the re-org's happening...), and about another 15-20,000 worldwide. Technology-wise, we are in the dark ages - I may actually get a new laptop this summer with 8O WinXP 8O to replace my 5-1/2 year old Win95 laptop - and I have one of the newer PC's in our department. We actually have a workstation that is a Pentium 133 with a whopping 32MB of RAM (in a company like ours, you hang onto everything you can....otherwise, you might have nothing!).

One other employee in our department (about 35 persons locally) has a PDA, so I am by far the resident geek. My boss suggested that I could get a company cell phone (basic AT&T candybar), but considering that I'm about to upgrade to an MPx or iPaq 6300 this summer, I've basically said I'm not interested - I'm several lightyears ahead on the technology curve......

At this point, our IS group is tentatively rolling out VPN access to select individuals, and I intend to be one of them. Ride that wave, baby!

I work at The University of Texas at Austin as an undergraduate sysadmin for a small lab. I make 0 purchasing decisions, but I give my boss tons of advice..

Anyway, I think UT might actually officially support Palms. They don't forbid departments from buying anything else, but Palms seem to come with a HUGE discount.
