Microsoft Cutting $100 Million From Internal IT Budget

This headline is a little sensational but the article gives a nice look at piece of the internal workings of the MS IT department.

Microsoft's IT infrastructure comprises 150,000 PCs and laptops and 7,000 data-center servers. With 55,000 employees around the world, that's a nearly 3-to-1 ratio of PCs to workers. Markezich explains it's not unusual for software developers to use two, three, or even four computers in their work. In all, some 300,000 computing systems and devices are part the company's IT fabric. Tablet PCs are the mobile computers of choice. In fact, they're the only choice--Microsoft no longer issues laptops to its employees. And virtually all of Microsoft's internal systems run the latest versions of Windows. "As a policy, we don't run competitive technology," Markezich says.
