Yes there a bunch of UNIX/PICK Mediacal Management solutions - and I saw a PICK service/inventory control solution - last year in a milldewed - damp office - and I regretted every minute of it:-). I realized then how happy I was about my career choices!

Yea - there are still PICK (even a MUMPS one in San Antonio) systems around. There are a bunch of FP DOS programs still crunching data too!

Do you want me to describe the "old" woman?:)
