After being flatly turned down by the finaicnefolks of the state side of the house, User goes to corporate side finance and request software that cost roughly that amount you would pay for a Mercedes Benz, midlevel, e-class. They say...okie dokie.... note this was never run past IT at all.....
So now I get an email and low and behold he purchased it.......
Meeting this morning as to when can he get it installed
Well..... now it's my turn
After we purchase 3 new rather powerful PCs, since the required OS will not run on and PC we currently own
Upgrade the servers, to accomodate
Change Antivirus and firewall policies
set up and apply new OS policies, since this stuff will not run on and OS we currently run
