I thought that Intuit had such a beastie - something that integrated
directly with QuickBooks.


I looked a while ago and if I remember correctly the whole shebang - with
hardware - was less that $2,000.  I'm not sure how random-accessible the
datastore is, but most Quicken software has some capability even if it's
only export/import of QIF files.

Subject: POS with integratable backend


My brother is starting a retail business that needs to purchase a POS
for. I am not really familiar with the POS market and haven't been
impressed with what he has found so far. I'd like to see a POS that
provided a backend that I could integrate with from CF. That backend
could be a mainstream database accessible via JDBC or even just a Java
API. I assume people on this list must have worked with small retail
operations that wanted an integrated e-commerce web presence. If so,
any information on this subject would be helpful since I know very
little about POS systems.

I have found some open source Java-based POS systems that I could
easily hack up for his needs, but he and I would feel more comfortable
buying a POS system.
