Industry analyst Gartner estimates that 80 percent of the total cost of PC ownership is incurred after purchase, falling somewhere between $7,000 and $13,000 per PC per year. For many businesses with a reliance on computers, there is no higher priority than gaining control of this astronomical cost and simplifying the overall delivery and support processes. This is particularly relevant to Australian schools at the moment following the Rudd Labour government's election promise to fund a computer for every student in Years 9-12 as part of its education revolution.
