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.

It made for a break from all the shooting-yourself-in-the-foot comparisons.
