Seriously?

Walked into new job today....I sat down with the current incumbent and to my horror I discovered that she was using this screen. I mean come on!!! This laptop is like 5 years old, it has a SQUARE?!? screen, I have to squint to read the spreadsheets and I do not want to be wearing glasses after a month! Ok I know I'm ranting however I have been plagued with bad IT systems since I arrived in London. Initially working for the Health Department which I get they are public sector although they had fast laptops, but I did not expect this from a private company. I mean the lotus notes version is almost 7 years old, they use excel 2003 (this is a biggie for me, I'm used to 2011 and 2007) however it's frustrating to go back to an old version..I could go on and on. I guess I was spoilt working at a bank however this is ridiculous! I have no patience for crap systems and hardware. I complained so I now have a decent size monitor however I WILL make sure I get a new laptop from IT before the incumbent leaves or I leave too haha. What annoys me more is that there is another finance team who work for a separate company however they work closely with us because of an alliance agreement. They have the latest gadgets from up to date oracle system to latest version of excel and decent laptops. Aah #firstworldproblems haha
