Every office I have ever worked in has had a PBX system using some sort
of proprietary keysets.

Every office I have ever worked in since '95 has had keysets with an
LCD display that (amomg other things) displays caller ID.

Centrex is a ripoff IMO. Especially for offices where most of the
calling is in-house. Why pay for a line for each station when say only
20% of your calls ever go outside the building?
