Non-profit spending
One of my users 'needs' a 28 inch screen to 'view design in detail.' Something about it rubs me the wrong way. We work at a non-profit. Our servers are refurbished potatoes, our laptops came straight from a dumpster. I go to absurd lengths to limit our expenses as much as possible.
It could be that I'm way too frugal, but I just get incredibly annoyed when I hear luxury items like massive screens are 'needed.'
Non-profit spending
@Gina That's why standards are important, so people feel they are on equal footing and costs are easier to manage. I'm in favor of the standard being tied to a cost, so that if the person wants a 50" monitor they can apply the price of the standard monitor to the cost of the larger. Upon termination or resignation either they owe the cost of the standard monitor and own the 50", or forfeit it to the company.
