   Subject: suitable for mission critical?

   The question I'm leading up to is:  what are peoples' opinions
   on the prudence of using Postres to run a small business?  I know
   it's not something you'd want to use to run a Fortune 500 accounting
   application, but is it acceptable for something in the range of
   50-200 invoices a month?  Or would you strongly advise against
   running our business on it?

Insanity.  Get some real business accounting software.  There are
dozens of commercial packages on the PC.  Do you want to write
accounting software or build your business?
