Network World Fusion 12/08/03

Jeremy Wright discusses the perils of changing direction in a large organization at budget time:

"So, when I'm having to prove rational for something I need to not just prove the cost savings to the organization long term, I also need to justify the 'added expense' of 'dropping' the sunk cost.

Bowulf expands on the theme, discussing how his company continues to spend money expanding what is now an inadequate storage system, rather than making a break and getting a new, more capable one.
