I completely agree. I work with several of these, and I'd really like to help make them better.

There's no reason why an EHR used by 100 employees needs a $500K Dell server to run, doesn't support load balancing (but needs it, since the app can't handle more than 40 users, so you need a bunch of VMs on that server) and uses up hundreds of gigs in the database (wikipedia is like, what, 50gb uncompressed...?)

They suck, there's a market.
