Not a better phrase to describe a Bloomberg Terminal. Everything is there, mainly data, quick charts, Messenger and with it 'social' (yes, Bloomberg Support do make restaurant recommendations if asked), quick facilitation to sometimes complex questions through these services, handy linking to Excel, and where data quality was questionable a quick response.

I think what Bloomberg did/do was/is listen to their customers. A Bloomberg today is much like when I first touched it 20 years ago, but it isn't. It feels the same, or similar, the screens are vastly larger, does what it has always done, scales. There are no redesigns that stop a user doing what they've done before, yet allow them to do more. It is what is expected and surprises, sometimes frustrates, but a learning curve and pleasure comes from learning.
