As I travel from event to event, I’ve begun to notice a pattern. Attendees tell me that they’re using a device such as a computer, an internet tablet, a netbook or a smartphone that they themselves purchased rather than using a company-supplied device. This trend is known as “bring your own computer” or BYOC. The “C” by the way could be a desktop computer, a laptop, a netbook, an internet tablet and/or a smartphone.
Quite often, I’m told that the device their organization supplied was selected to meet the broadest possible set of requirements for the largest number of staff members while having the lowest possible cost.
