having worked in data entry on a green screen app, as well as the .Net, Windows Form "upgrade", I agree with this sentiment.
the green screen app was highly optimized for efficient and accurate data entry without use of a mouse. The modern alternative looked better, but a large portion of the functionality was much less efficient in comparison.
the only redeeming factor of the new application, was it allowed much of the manual data entry to be automated. This however required considerable time, technical knowledge, and industry contacts to develop and implement, which not all organizational users possessed.
