My wife works admin for the NHS, says one of the migration challenges is the legacy system for patient records (eg. 'BOIS'), which still runs in a DOS/command window (whatever the Windows universe term for a DOS terminal is now).

Another issue they're having is the turnover of IT staff, folks with a few years experience can move to the glittering lights of the private sector and a large salary increase.
