Running a proper AV solution tends to cut back on client issues. In reality there is a movement to use virtual desktops with non persistent os volumes that boot from a golden image. Easier to manage, storage cost can be a bummer.

Work product is saved to shares or portals. Most people in an office environment dont need a full tilt desktop. I run CAD/CAM so basically use server class hardware (both wintel and mac).

Big change is coming in storage. In the next 10 years NAND will replace spinning disk. Solid state is already in use in supercomputer platforms and high end systems now.

Need stuff coming in the datacenter.
