Well, not so much geekery, as complaining about the 'state of the art' of Transport Planning.
Keystroke Macros went out of date when Microsoft added Visal Basic for Applications (VBA) to Excel. This completely killed Lotus 1-2-3, which relied on a macro language which looked like your shift key was stuck and only the top row of the keyboard worked.
Packages which rely on this form of macro, like EMME/2 are laughably behind the times. Unfortunately, they're also leading the pack.
Transport Planning software. Valiantly attacking 1997 again.
