I'm still running PC's that are P4's that were on site when I started here more than 7 years ago. We drive them until they die and we replace with used. For us it's budget as well.

It used to be 3 years until the economy hit the crapper. Now we drive 'em until they die. -Paul From: David Mazzaccaro [mailto:david.mazzacc...@hudsonmobility.com] Sent: Friday, March 09, 2012 2:13 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: PC lifecycle? How long do you folks keep PCs and laptops in your organizations? 4? 5? 6 years? My oldest are a few from 2006. I am thinking I should start replacing after they hit 5 years (4 years if heavy user/issues). I know it will depend on the business environment.I'm just trying to get some idea as to what others do.
