This is interesting. When I started with computers in 1977 (TRS-80
Model I), I was the target market for computers, software, etc. I am a
small businessperson who invested time and energy into using computers.
I loved it! Now, I am not recognized at all. Either I use canned
software (gnucash, a quicken wanna be), an Office Program (Libre
Office), etc. or I am a "developer" earning a living writing code for
others. Neither apply. I have been writing in dBASE II, dBXL, Foxbase,
FoxPro/DOS (Visual Foxpro 5.0, never worked (not enough memory error
with more than enough memory)). Now I am trying Pure Basic. I wonder
what happened to the rest of us.
