18 years ago --- Quote Start --- It is hard for me to understand . --- Quote End --- Same for me!:) If you once work for large companies, you will experience that there are regulations given top to down. IT-security is defined somewhere else, where nobody thinks of the requirements of today's engineering, when licenses come from networks or IP cores have to be loaded and installed to do the usual work. It appears to me that most IT departments only think of business software users (MS office assumingly) and so they cut down everything, which is not 100% necessary, to protect the PC's settings from beeing modified by user. That is, why the PCs are often restricted down to the "secretary level":rolleyes: The engineering departments and mostly even the complete local busines units have no chance to change this. This was the case for nearly all of my recents companies which employed me (among them the no 1 addresses of electronis, pharma /medical and automotive). The day will come when even the Windows based oscilloscopes will be under the control of the IT department and every change of the amplification or resoultion will cause a $50 ticket:p
