In the same year, I was introduced to a PC1 {http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f1/Ibm_pc_5150.jpg/250px-Ibm_pc_5150.jpg} with Ashton Tate's dbase II on it! Green letters on a nearly black screen. I still have a pang of nostalgia when hearing the whir of the hard drive as it takes 1-2 minutes to boot up. The start of the serverless revolution!
Hey! I wrote my own accounting system using AtariST's DbMan (an Ashton Tate dBaseIII clone). It worked great! I still have an AtariSTE in a box with an old RLL 30 meg drive and 12 inch monitor. :-)
