ITS Recommendations

Windows XP users should purchase a replacement computer with Windows 7 by the end of 2013. If you are running specialized XP only software, please contact the vendor for a newer version or look for replacement software.

Microsoft Office 2003 users should migrate to Microsoft Office 2010. UH departments may purchase Office 2010 licenses from the ITS Site License Office. Go to http://www.hawaii.edu/sitelic for more information.
