   The two contenders

   system and then have it run by a non-accounting person (possibly a
   volunteer).

There are other programs to consider.  I just received the most recent
upgrade to MultiLedger and it looks like CheckMark Software does
listen to its customers (i.e. significant upgrades).  M.Y.O.B. has
gotten good reviews in the magazines recently and is inexpensive
<$200.  I have a 1-1/2 year old demo disk for atOnce and probably
would have purchased it except it didn't have any inventory control
capability.  I don't know what the program is like now that PeachTree
Software is handling it.  BTW, you can get a MultiLedger demo disk
for free from CheckMark Software.  E-Mail me if you need the Ph #.
