[comp.os.cpm] is there life after dBASE II?

tech@auvax.UUCP (Richard Loken) (04/18/89)

I felt whimsical today and tried to upgrade my copy od dBASE II today and was
told by the young lass at Ashton-Tate that they don't have nuthin' for CP/M
atall.  I tried begging and whining but it had no affect on her.

I asked her if it was okay to pirate a copy and she told me to do whatever was
best for me.  (I am sure Mr. Tate would not agree. :-))

Is this true.....?

If so:

1. Does it matter?

2. What is available for those who feel a sudden desire to use a database tool?

3. Should I start giving pirate copies of dBASE II to all my friends?  :-)

I wonder, might I be elegible to be called "your friend"?
