Mike, I already have a 386 clone to run an order fullfilling program. I could use it to do my accounting, but that would mean doing it after hours. I also have an XT BridgeBoard, but that is unacceptably slow. So I would definitely like to do my accouting on the Amiga, it would then run a BBS and a FAX simultaneously with accounting and or Desktop Publishing. I think seing that in action would convince a lot of customers to buy Amigas, and it would also make my life easier. But if I can't find anything, then I might build another clone and network it with my Order/ POS computer.

Sylvain: Have you considered getting (or just using if you have it already) AMAX and one of the Mac accounting programs? I too wanted to try and run a business on an Amiga, but the software out for it just doesn't rate. -Mike Schiller In sunny Fort Lauderdale

Mike, I do have an A-MaxII around here somewhere, but I haven't found MAc ROMs yet, and I know nothing about MAC software, any package you'd suggest? Sylvain Duford Mega Computer Services

If Sylvian used AMax, then he wouldn't be able to run his FAX and BBS programs simultaneously. I have the same requirement for multitasking.. I can't afford (much less find the space for) all the CPU's I would need to do what my Amiga does for me now… and I want to do more (accounting).
