Well, my thoughts on this sort of thing, especially at a university,
is- job security.
for example, one of my old Univ. departments was about 45
researchers, not counting grad students, departmental paper
shufflers, and assorted extras. Super nice internal LAN, no virus
problem, fantastic linked databases for reagents and supples,
hazardos material locations, file sharing worked great, internal
email worked great. this was in the 90's when the Novell stuff would
basically totally hang from 4:00 to 5:30 each day just due to people
logging out at the same time. Once ina while a Word macro virus when
the grad students would use the main campus CPUs, they were rife.
Implemented and supported by: all Macs, one 3/4 time technician.
I moved to a different dept, they had 6 dedicated IT staff and
weren't running quite so well (putting it lightly).
Others mileage may vary of course.
Thanks for the followup.
