Yep. Last fall, my work, a government service, updated its land registration program.

The previous version was from 1979, took 9 years to fully implement, was written in COBOL, and replaced written/typewritered/stamped ledgers.

Everything is so much simpler now. No more patches, workarounds, remembering 10 different codes for 5 actions... it used to take a month to teach people, now it's done in a week.
