A little-known fact is that by far the most polluting aspect of an end-user estate is the manufacturing stage of PCs, laptops and thin client. Manufacturing alone is more than 5 times more polluting than electricity consumption for the majority of endpoints.
Did you know that by replacing Windows on your endpoint estate you can breathe new life into devices up to 12 years old, continue realising value from your older assets, avoid the replacement costs associated with a device refresh and thus free up valuable budget?
