The area I feel this difference the most is when you use software that didn't fall into this trap. Things like MYOB EXO/CRM, SAP ERP systems have code bases stretching back decades that innovate at a glacial pace. As such it is basically 2000's tech that we are forced to still use and that has turned into its big advantage. It is always fun to put up the task managed on these to see them using 20-30MB of RAM with a large part of that being the current data base loaded in. VLC & Blender are other examples of this.
