We are getting that proposal on the 22nd from a reliable vendor. The price tag will kill that portion of it, we just did 3 million in cuts yesterday. 60+ people out the door at the end of the school year. You bring up a valid point in a backhanded way. The choices are write the check and do it correctly. Or have something that doesn't work too well.
Frustrating though. Any reasonably clean/patched/well maintained machine connects and functions perfectly. From: Andrew S.

If you're fortunate, they'll approve the project with the proper tools. If you're really fortunate, they'll kill it for now. Either way, make sure you've researched the tools that you will need beforehand.

Using an SSL tunnel here. I am just starting initial testing with a few users and it is a nightmare. Wrong Java, toolbars and popup blockers and layers and layers of crapware are causing tons of problems. And these are the alleged 'tech savy' users.
