   But really a lot do, most of them aren't even in the database, since once    
   you have got no problem, you won't mind for a feed-back.   
   Quite a lot of  of the dedicated professional  programs (like the managing    
   program for a swiss farm, the tax programm for germans (the one with the 2    
   Gig database of rules* ), the cash programm for the fitness studio... just    
   run out of the box since they just use straight way the basic resources: the    
   keyboard, the mouse, the screen, the printer and nothing else.   
      
   Once they begin to replace dll's it's not so obvious.
