You’ve GOT to be kidding… USPS is actually going to upgrade the POS systems? Is that going to be for ALL offices, or just the offices that currently have POS ONE, which will then be given to the NCDs that are currently using the old black box IRTs?
Let me think… POS ONE is pushing 20 years old, on a software platform that was discontinued ten years ago. The IRTs are pushing at least 25 years old, and still don’t have hard drives. Yup, it’s about time to upgrade both of them.
