I want to buy a data base and would like a recommendation as what to buy.
There seems to be a lot of hype about dBase III but it costs about $500.
The main use of the data base will be to keep track of customer accounts.
Is dBase III really worth the money, or can I get something similar for 
less?

Thanks,

-Troy
