I used to look after airlines and the old okidata, I think prior to

I like seeing stable systems in operation.
That makes me think of this water billing software I did for a company
about 8 years ago. I built it so solid that they stopped any annual
service/maintenance contract after the first year because they could see
it works great and they didn't see any benefit to paying that annual
fee. Although I miss the chance at the extra income, I'm proud that
it's rock solid...and still working great AND going to continue to work
great for years to come. It's a VFP9 app (or was it VFP8 back then?)
with a MySQL backend.
Heck, even the VFP9 app that was initially built in 2003 for my first
MBSS client is still running rock solid today. That's using a VFP
database (DBC).
