I'm going to be setting up two or three Mac SE's for a small
business, and I need some software reccomendations (last time I
shopped for PC software, it was dBase II).
Here's what we need:
-Networking hardware & software - something that doesn't require
a dedicated fileserver would be VERY nice.
-Tape backup hardware & software - we'll need some kind of network
backup/restore capability.
-Database - relational & programmable. Something like R:Base 5000
on the IBM PC would be perfect.
-Word Processor - has to be easy to use (I've heard nasty things
about Microsoft Word). We'd also like to find a good spell checker
and some kind of mail merge program.
-Graphics - for simple CAD - PCB design and physical design of the boxes
that the boards go in. We need something that isn't too complicated to
use (NOT a full-blown CAD system).
-Accounting - I have no idea what we want because I don't even know
what kind of accounting is involved in running a small business, but
any help would be appreciated.
-Any useful utilities/DAs you might know about.
Thanks in advance for any help!
