Investiments in IT may be consider Capex
Not only physical assets but even systems improvements may be considered capex. For example, when a company decides to invest or change its ERP system like SAP.

Capex Categories Depend on Company and Gaap/IFRS
I would say the type of capital expenditure is according to the legislative framework the company is under. For example if a company is based in IFRS (European Union), then the cost related to development in a project that is breaking new ground or of features that will generate a future income for the company would also be categorised as capex. If something will generate a income it is then seen as a capex, but it will depend on the nature of the company and what accounting rules it is following.
