I actually took a look at the site. As near as I could determine it will not run standalone on a Windows machine. It's a Linux program so it requires a Linux operating system. However, once it has been set up on, say, a Linux server it can then be run from a Windows workstation off that server. "With Quasar it is extremely easy to set up remote access to multiple servers from multiple workstations. You can run Quasar on both Windows and/or Linux on the same network. For example, you can maintain a Linux server and access the data from a Windows workstation." Now I could have missed the part where it tells me I'm wrong here, and if so I would appreciate it if someone could supply a link that talks about this more than just saying "mainly for Linux but supports Windows" On the serious plus side, both Linux and Quasar are open source and therefore "free". Also, Linux comes with all the office tools you would need for creating documents, spreadsheets and the like. And, all these files are pretty much completely MS compatible. -- Geoff Los Angeles -----Original Message----- From: pianotech-bounces@ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces@ptg.org] On Behalf Of Hechler Family Sent: Monday, February 28, 2005 8:37 PM To: pianotech@ptg.org Subject: For those that haven't gone to the link, here is the overview *Quasar Accounting* Quasar is a full function, stand-alone business accounting package. ==== software descriptive content not forwarded ==== Designed by: Frynge Web Design <http://www.frynge.com> -- Duaine Hechler Piano, Player Piano, Pump Organ Tuning, Servicing & Rebuilding Associate Member of the Piano Technicians Guild Reed Organ Society Member St. Louis, MO 63034 (314) 838-5587 dahechler@charter.net www.hechlerpianoandorgan.com _______________________________________________ pianotech list info: https://www.moypiano.com/resources/#archives
