So there's this giant rolling rack of computers by my desk that's full of desktops and laptops going back to Dell because their leases are up. While I was taking inventory of them I had no less than four people stop, gawk, and say, "WOW OMG WTF R THESE 4 LOLOLOL??!!one!11!!eleven!" (OK, so maybe they didn't say that exactly but that's what they sounded like in my hormone-ravaged head).
Me: "They're lease returns from [one of our companies]."
Them: *stare*
Me: "...they're going back to Dell because they're old."
Them: "WOW LOL U SURE GOT LOTS 2 DO ROFL"
Me: "..."
Just a few minutes ago -- I swear this is true -- another person walked by and did the stop and gawk thing.
Person: "What are these things?"
Me (thinking this person couldn't possibly mean what I think they mean): "Lease returns from [company]."
Person: *stare*
Person: "Are they DVD players or something?"
Me: *brain explodes*

haha :) So, companies can lease computers and then get newer ones once the others are outdated? My fil does a job similar to yours, although he's the head of the company's department for all operations internationally... he always has odd old laptops that don't look anything like the ones we'd buy today.
ZDeep breath :) Remember that these morons might not be doing your job, nor helping with your immense amount of work, but you most-likely make more money because you know about the technology-stuff. I would be the dumb person who wouldn't understand it all...
