I'm a big believer that technology can't solve all problems. sometimes
places try to shoehorn in a tech solution because they don't know what else
to do. I support a marine department and they wanted all these expensive
satellite connections and junk so they could stay connected to their
maintenance programs while at sea. I recommended the get an index card,
hole puncher, and piece of yarn to hang the cards on their equipment and
then when they return to port, gather them up and spend a day doing data
entry. it didn't go over to well but in my opinion it works better and is
cheaper than connecting to satellite.

Good article. Long read but worth it. Apparently Kaiser is having
trouble with their Epic implementation and Citrix is getting dragged through
the dirt too.
