On a related note, Oolio has new EFTPOST terminals that are even worse. Every merchant staff I've spoken to is as frustrated with them as us customers are. What'd they use to write the code on this thing anyway??

I'm reminded of the quote from 200 years ago from the time of the Luddites, which has never been more apt than today; "machinery might be man’s chief blessing instead of his curse if society was differently constituted.”
