Sorry but you can't blame Win7 on Merck. Microsoft is sunsetting XP in April 2014. Don't move to Win7 and you'll really see what broken IT looks like.
I always enjoy technology gripes from the non-tech - nothing would make you happy besides something that read your mind while you didn't have to brother to think.
My point was, after a nice talk with my buddy who was the director responsible for field sales laptops and whatever else, Merck is not like us individual. We may rush out and upgrade to Windows 8. He has to look at other issues like training, tech support, compatibility of Windows 8 with existing software. Then the capital investment issue. You don't just buy new toys because iPads are the coolest and newest. He said they are always testing new software and hardware.
Some of us may remember the major headache a few years back when we were hit with a major virus and how long it took to fix it. All those Norton update downloads and eventually CDs in the mail (fool proof enough that everyone could run it).
