MAC
is committed to remaining with the MacIntosh platform and treating
its computers as consumables with 3
year life span. The goal will be turn retire one-third of its computers every year
and replace them with new machines.
Computers will be assigned to staff based on functional needs. The staff person designated to
maintain the Web site and the office manager will always work on the
most up-to-date and powerful
machines for that purpose. A
summary of current equipment and functions as well as a replacement
schedule are indicated in the below tables.
