Since its completion, it cost a fortune to maintain and is still in danger of collapsing. There are no plans to replace it, since it was never needed in the first place. I expect every installation has its own pet software which is analogous to the above.

en Felt like the Leaning Tower of Pisa out there sometimes,

en Our jointly developed, software-only solution with Nortel provides forward-thinking companies a powerful combination to improve the performance of their customer service.

I know, I’ll put a stone in, that’ll work! There we go…”

The next week, I think, people are coming back, going,
“Rwanda doesn’t work very well; infrastructure’s fucked.”

en Sun's vision of computing is a promising one because it will allow a great variety of clients to participate on networks without the prior installation of special protocol stacks and LAN-specific software drivers on each client machine. Instead, the software drivers can be delivered via Java technology, on a just-in-time basis, as needed. Interoperability will be enhanced, and that interoperability will be good for end users both in the office and at home.

en We weren't in the position to make the investment needed for a single-instance ERP system.
