Existing Hardware Standards - PC Laptops
Existing hardware will only be supported for the specified time period as
defined below. These guidelines are based upon the University-wide Desktop
Standards Committee recommendation for new purchases, with adjustments for AS&E
and Fletcher. As technology is introduced, a new hardware generation will be
supported for four (4) years from the date of the standard - not the date of
the purchase. The standard is re-evaluated every six months, so cycles start
and end in January and July.
Celeron Processors are not supported on any computer.

* New laptops that have Ultra Low Voltage processors run at
speeds that fall approximately a year to two years behind current
available speeds. Because of this they may not be able to handle
current application software and operating systems. If they are unable
to run current supported software they may fall off of the supported
list early. Please keep this in mind when selecting a machine that has
an ultra low voltage processor.
