And the off-the-shelf systems aren't so darn good either - despite their huge expense.
I think you've hit the nail on the head - unfortunately.

Subject: Re: ARS as a development system
I agree that ARS Developers are a dying breed.
There are four things that, I feel, have led to our demise:
1. Very Bad, Very Expensive custom systems that never delivered on the
promise.
2. The Buzz word of the day, be it ITIL, SARBANES-OXLEY, Best
Practices...etc gives Executives rationalization for buying not building
3. Catch 22, a lack of skilled developers makes companies look for off the
shelf solutions reducing the market fo skilled developers.
4. Ignorance, No one wants to take the time to understand their processes,
review cost benefit analyses or examine the possibities of how it could be
done better and faster.
