My goal is to bring 44 pcs into this century and prepare them to handle the next few years. We have been stagnant for a long time. Inevitably, we will be stranded. Slowly but surely, we are being stranded. I recently had to replace a video card and at the same time upgrade from Win95 to Win98 because it's almost impossible to buy a video card for Win95 (old version).

Our entire organization is looking ahead and some departments have already moved forward. This is my first and only IS job and I'm basically in the blind region of knowledge. I realize a good portion of my pcs will be replaced vs. upgraded. They're so old, they aren't salvagable or upgradable. For those that are upgradable, it will come down to budget. Will it be worth it to upgrade it or simply purchase a replacement? That's what I'm trying to find out now by outlining RAM, Processor and HD for each pc.
