I remember getting an IBM PS/2 model 50 (IIRC - this was 2 decades ago) with 2MB RAM, and being frustrated that I no longer had time to go for a coffee and a cigarette while Statgraphics did my correlation analyses. Hell of a step up from an XT with 640KB...

You'll upset the children who want to believe that everything regarding TPM is bad!
Having said that, the track record of the UK government when it comes to IT projects is lamentable - maybe a standardised framework with TPM as an element would be useful to constrain both the idiocy of the civil servants and the incompetence of the consultants.
I remember one network / desktop upgrade project a few years ago where the mechanics of the final desktop replacement weren't considered until the deployment was a week away - and that's not atypical.

I was thinking this might make a pretty cool magnetic bearing, if the cooling could be sorted - flywheel energy storage springs to mind.
