I know someone who as of two years ago did his business accounting on an Apple II. Don't remember the exact model-IIe, I think. Anyway his reason made perfect sense to me-it did everything he needed, no longer had a learning curve, and was fully paid for. I started with a Kaypro I running CP/M with Wordstar and kept my accounts in a hand-written ledger. The accounting entry took longer but I never had nearly as many problems as I've had since 'upgrading' to a computerized accounting system. Of course my accounting also got more complex so it's hard to say what caused the problems. Sometimes I think I should just go back to doing things by hand-if only I had the time any more.
