staff trainings

I have tried to introduce several pieces of our new computer equipment to 
our office staff and have attempted to train them on the equipment.  They 
are shying away from the new computer equipment (modem, scanner, etc.).  I
have heard comments such as "as long as you are here and know how to use 
it why do I need to learn it?"  I was wondering if any of the other I & R 
specialist have encountered this problem or am I the only one experiencing
this problem.?  Lisa Cullen, Altoona CIL
