It's as if every vehicle still is built by hand, not just Rolls Royce for people who want to pay extra for that sort of thing. By now, an awful lof of what IT does ought to be commodity and one day customers will decide that a hand-beaten specialist item actually is a hobby for the craftsman, not automatically a better result than a similar item churned out in identical thousands in a factory for 1/10 of the price.

I don't see that, John.
On the contrary one of my clients has been taking clients away from much larger competitors by asking me to provide functions for their prospective clients that the one-size-fits-all systems used by the larger firms either can't do at all or are so wedded to the notion you just espoused that no one will futz with them.

That said, I'm using strong off-the shelf components like .NET, SQL Server, etc. that make that kind of nimble response easy for me to provide.
Anyone who does not go overboard- deserves to.
