Thats it, the Alpha Micro. Programma International had
one, and they about
danced in circles around it. Totally useless payroll only machine, but it
sure looked nice.
The Salvation Army, at least for a while (I'm sure they're all PC these days),
used Alpha Micro systems as local church management servers. I rapidly found
several holes in AMOS allowing me to get right down to a command line,
leading the local administrator to tell me not to do that again :-) Until
that time, though, I was able to use the system to dial-out and call my local
Internet dialup shell. But, of course, I did this after hours.
