From Dublin City University comes this tale of IT overkill.
I recently obtained a copy of Microsoft Office 2013. Nice. Except, they wont allow me install it on my clunky old Dell.... it "has yet to be security vetted". Microsoft Office 2013 is hardly a dodgy product from a bunch of hackers in the middle of some free fire zone. Mind you, this venerable Northside uni had previously declared Dropbox a security risk.....
Brian : yes, well DCU is the enterprise university... I guess when they upgrade from Dell they can move from Windows 3.1 and Office 97 :)
