Desktop and Laptop Standards at UW

Why do we need standards?

There are many options in the desktop and laptop environments that include decisions about what to buy, whether it will work at the University of Wyoming, and who to call if there are problems with your hardware and software. These are all important considerations. The Division of Information Technology has adopted, over the years, standards which it  recommends to the campus community.

Lists of currently supported and recommended hardware and software are found through the links at left.

The software you purchase should be compatible with operating systems currently supported at the University of Wyoming. The UW IT Client Support group is available to work with you if you have questions. Please contact the UW IT Help Desk at 766-HELP (4357), option 1, or your departmental user consultant for assistance with any of these supported standards.
