At a previous employer, we had an ASCII WSC with Motorola USD modems; the 
sales force had DOS Client Access.  The PC's were programmed in Clipper (a 
DBase derivative): Customer inquiry, sales history, line item price book 
and order entry were the main applications. They sent in their orders by 
RFROMPCB.  We distributed database updates via diskette due to the volume.
