Correct. But then Anges in accounting couldn't still be using Excel 97 & Visual Basic to get spreadsheets to the COO with her macros intact

Anges is trying to do her job with the bad tools we have given her.

To a degree, true. But if Agnes could be trained to use 2010, 2013, or 2016 with Win 7, 8 etc we wouldn't be having the problem. But NO...XP

We should have had sanboxed operating systems, segmentation, proper testing etc. Why is any of this on the user? Unworkable.

It's unworkable because the C-levels don't see IT as worth giving the necessary budget to, to update OSes, Office versions, and training

The OS shouldn't need all that. That's the problem.

And if the OS doesn't need that, then the users bitch because they don't have local admin rights & have to call Help Desk to update printers

You're asking the wrong questions. Why is it so much work update printers? I think IT people have become blind to how bad, horrible it is.

Heh. The issue isn't that we don't have software like Tesla cars. Most of our software: bicycles held together with duct tape, no seatbelt.

VERY much! If we'd had this discussion in 1991 or so, & gotten 9x built correctly to be the modern 'base'...then we'd be driving Teslas!
