There is usually a reason why "anal-rentntive IT folks" lock down
the computers for users...
Usually admins lock down computers in order to keep the computers
running as stable as possible, since users have a tendency to do
things that might not be advantageuos for the system as a whole,
thus minimizing maintenance and re-ghosting etc.
IMNSHO users are at times less than ignorant, and most of the time,
just plain ignorant...

overcome them. SAVE MONEY by scaling-up rather than buying more servers.
