The problem doesn't seem to be so much with management not wanting to 
change - it seems to be with fear of the IT dept. Many companies still 
seem to be under the dictat of the IT dept and allow the IT dept to do 
what it wants rather than management telling the IT dept what it wants 
and please implement it! The IT dept is there to provide a SERVICE to 
the company, not the other way around!

The howls of anguish that came from USERS when their IT depts foisted 
the ribboned Office 2007 on them had to be heard to be believed.
But of course to trot out the old saying - "no-one gets fired for buying 
Microsoft....."
