Computerised medical records are so much fun. 3051

Bragging or you just have not yet run into problems you can't handle?

I've got the references to the problems people have had, including one place where I worked where they had probably 100 terminals and six guys in their IT department and they could not get it all to work right.

Maybe you forgot about the example I talked about (the whole hospital was hit by a virus), or the fact that such problems are not uncommon. I read about five computer trade rags (infoweek, infoworld, eweek, etc) and if you think people don't have problems, then you haven't been around much.

Pay attention: this does not mean someone can't have a system running and they are satisfied with what they are getting out of it.

I run my own little operation without problems. For ten years. The hospital where I went with someone else was down for a day. All of the hospital. You can say they don't have the "right stuff" but usually when I hear this from guys like you, its because of ego. Not competance.

One or two? You don't know how many you have?

Who is "Russ and I"? Russia and India? Stashed? Hacked?
