People are creatures of habit. Nerds, doubly so. That’s why we all had that one job that was still using a DOS inventory management program on its computers well after 2000, and it’s why we’re still getting Pokemon games while some of the original “gotta catch ’em all” generation are now grandparents. ...   PC World
