people resit change
" MySQL was considered

But rejected. The company didn't feel like it was supported enough or reliable enough to trust their data to it. They wouldn't even go for using the 'free' version of SQL Server, MSDE, for smaller stores because it wasn't fully supported.

The registers themselves were NCR. Higher ups had already made this purchase commitment before I was brought in. "

even when change is for the better, people resist it, easier to go with the flow and fail then try something new and succeed
