Wait... wasn't the tractor thing a metaphor?

To me the tractor is about anything huge in a business.

A great example would be an EHR - it's massive and hugely painful to move from one system to another. Assuming you don't go with cloud solution, instead go with a hosted or self hosted solution, you could find yourselves in a position to have have programmers make changes for you. The same goes for anything really though.

This is true. Tractors aren't a metaphor though, they are a key example.

Such a good word to use though, ha ha.
