The Information Technology Governance Committee (ITGC) approved the implementation of recommendations made by the Desktop/Laptop Computer Standards Committee for desktop/laptop computer standards. This policy became effective April 1, 2002. These pages are here to inform the university community about the university standards and numerous available options and upgrades.
The standards include both Windows and Macintosh platforms. There is at least one desktop and one laptop model available for each platform.
Standards allow ETSU to provide better and more efficient support for the university, efficient acquisition, and the most cost-effective pricing available.
These standards have been developed to meet the needs of the majority of university computing users. Those who have special needs can request a variance from the standards. Requests for a variance must be included with the purchase requisition.
OIT will also be available to assist with your configuration needs.
If you have any questions about these standards, please review the Frequently Asked Questions, contact the OIT helpdesk at oithelp@mail.etsu.edu, or call 94648.
