Once your software-project is more then 5 cpp-files and you need to rebuilt 
everything for buildsystem-fixes, you will disagree with the "not demanding". 
Once you run your app inside any of the valgrind tools, you will disagree with 
the "not demanding". Both for hardware and developers skills.

When your sales department gets two screens each just for browsing and looking 
at some calculation-sheets, how many screens do your developers get for 
writing code, reading docs, working with the bug-tracker/project-management, 
watching compile-output, running the app and stay in touch with the rest 
through mail, chat/im and web?

Have fun,

Arnold
