I can't even

I don't know where to begin with this one. From the lack of information, to the idea that they must have 0 downtime for this type of job.

Gibberish that is.

This was a lack of understanding. Basically he seems more like a non IT manager/person just put in charge of a project.

https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/2013606-cisco-phone-systemsThat's insane. By the time it's all said and done he will have spent the same amount in screwing around trying to make the old phones work as he would if he just bought the correct ones.

Rather than I can't even, I don't want to. . .

@DustinB3403 That kind of stuff is almost always AV related. I wonder what the solution ends up being.

Can you use USB over IP for USB security keys? Can't think of why not

Sure. And if you need that, you should fix that rather than running non-production level systems.

We do with zero problems. He's making excuses. The fact that he's the sole IT person for 13 sites is even more reason for him to be going virtual, his excuses literally make no sense.
The time alone that he has wasted on SW trying to figure out why his physical install isn't working, he could have installed a hypervisor and already had this thing up and running. Especially if he's already got other virtualization infrastructure in place and a preferred hypervisor.

I could forgive someone running Netware and Zenworks more easily than this. Does he say what industry the business is in?

He definitely either set that thread up to blow up, or really has no clue and is trying to cover his tracks. I'm amazed how often people try to cover technical incompetence with claiming to have been trolling. Like... do people really think that not knowing something is worse than being a jerk? What a weird way to want to be perceived.
