The team members, accustomed to working on Macintoshes, found computers outfitted with six-year-old versions of Microsoft software. Laptops were scarce, assigned to only a few people in the West Wing. The team was left struggling to put closed captions on online videos. Who's fault is that? That these elitist shitheads think they have to have freaking Macs to get their jobs done? A six year old version of Windows is Windows XP Professional which is the STANDARD for offices around the entire country. Everyone needs a laptop? Why? I've been in meetings, you have to, where EVERYONE IN THE ROOM has a laptop on their desk and NOT ONE PERSON NEEDS it, and in fact, NOT ONE PERSON USES it. I would also point out that nobody has alleged vandalism [yet]. Can't these idiots adapt at all? Are they so elitist and inflexible that they're going to throw out all the computers and buy new because they are so f*cking incompetent they can't move from Macs to XP? It isn't rocket science.
