[2013-03-21 21:47:52] <3JeffH> ##How do you think Group Policy will change in the next version of Windows?

[2013-03-21 21:49:25] <9json_wud> ##Many of my co-workers try to blame group policy when they don’t know why something wrong happens. How can I make sure this knee-jerk reaction doesn’t happen as often as it does now? What is the desktop guy’s first step to ‘Is this a group policy problem or not’?

[2013-03-21 21:50:30] <3JeffH> ##Why do you think some organizations *still* aren’t using group policy and what can you tell them to convince them?
