This may seem something of a wish-list, but if computers are to fulfil their promise in general practice, then these are the things that they need to be able to do. It is important that a doctor be able to see comprehensive information on the screen, logically linked, at one time. Anything that takes more than about one second to appear on the screen after it is called is distracting and annoying. Keyboards are also good when it's just you and the computer doing your work. But add in a pesky third party, such as a patient, and they can be a distraction.
