I saw this movie, it doesn't turn out well for us humans.

How would you determine between those that "can't" get a job and those that would choose "not" to get a job because they can freeload? Just because a person can't get a job as management or a high-paying IT position doesn't mean there are no jobs available and no work.

There is much more to this. It's not just Army systems being upgraded, it's all of DoD and ultimately, all federal desktops. What is being rolled out (and has been for some time) is the Federal Desktop Core Configuration (FDCC) (http://cit.nih.gov/Support/FAQ/FDCC/)(http://www.gcn.com/Articles/2008/08/01/FDCC-model-branches-out.aspx). FDCC started out as the USAF Standard Desktop Configuration (http://download.microsoft.com/download/5/c/4/5c46c4a0-950f-40a9-9a8f-9af4a2869bc2/WhitePaper_FDCC%20AirForce.doc)(http://www.afmc.af.mil/news/story.asp?id=123020383). FDCC is mandated for all federal systems (http://techbuddha.wordpress.com/2008/01/31/omb-deadline-for-fdcc-compliance-looming/) and the Dec 2009 deadline is for all DoD systems, which means millions of workstations.

What does it taste like?

Chicken!
