In an email entitled "Ha ha, made the front page" (which to me says volumes about his personality ;-) my boss at work sent me an URL linking to a Slashdot submission of his that got posted. It's this one, entitled "Is Today's IT an Undervalued Asset?".
It's an interesting question, and with phrasing like "At many companies it is now easier to get a corporate account at a strip club than a new PC", how could they resist posting it? ;-) What's interesting is that few people seem to address the issue of assigning value to IT and instead talk about the IT job market, and how many people in IT shouldn't be there. Interesting, but misses the point I think.
Hmm. I guess this isn't a good time to ask for a raise/better computer/free mocha frappuccinos? ;-) The responses about the general devaluation of IT fits with what other people are telling me about the general job market.
