Quoting mike <[email protected]>:
would have people believe. My point isn't that there are no IT managers who are biased, but that I don't think the whole IT field is as underhanded as Tom would have people believe. IT managers also don't control costs, many CFO's don't look years ahead to see what the TCO might be in a decade if they revamp the entire network. The TCO isn't IT...blame the bankers, or whomever. Perhaps his experience is just with bad IT managers, the two main ones I worked with came in from the ground level, hardware hobbyists who self taught and were certified later, I find these types of IT managers to be much better than those who get certified and pushed out in the field with no experience.
Another thing Tom doesn't seem to understand is that IT departments *not* having problems are unlikely to call for his services, so, of course he's going to see an inordinate number of problems. He's never going to see the well run IT departments.
