Problems with situations like these is that management either
surrounds themselves with inadequate accounting staff who do not
properly look into the options available, or they do not listen to
their accounting staff. Good accounting staff would work closely
with IT to find the best alternative monetarily and non monetarily.
Clearly, this is not what happened in Kurt's example.

time...they're learning!)
That said, it's pretty easy to tell if you're dealing with idiot
PHB's or idiot IT folks. I've run into my share of unreasonably Mac-
hostile IT people.
