We are using the Beverage Management Information System from Distribution
Information Systems Corporation out of Charlotte NC and it sux big time.  It
was purchased before I started working here because it is supposedly Y2K
compliant.  The files generally are, but a lot of the programs aren't.  Not
to mention that they are FILLED with bugs.

Since I'm not involved with the money end of it, I don't know how much, if
any, was already paid to them, but I do know that we did not pay the
entirety and that they aren't getting any more from us.
