I agree. In my first job in the late 90s I was called in to rebuild a global sales forecasting system for a large corporation. People in regional offices reported that they would click the button to save their data right before going to lunch. On a good day, the data would have been successfully saved by the time they got back. On a bad day, it would take longer.

What technology powered this business-critical system? Microsoft Access.
