[AccessD] Zipcodes within a radius

Hi John:

Without looking into it further, that looks like an excellent solution. Are
the computers something like dumb terminals? If it works as advertised it
sounds like a great solution.

Jim

I understand Jim, thanks for your advice.

My first step in this process is to have them install a server of their own
- this has been my bane there.

As for the Linux on old PCs. Their old PCs are really old and are actually
dieing from fatigue :o)

I am replacing them with this solution where appropriate:

Low cost and once the host computer is setup there is little support needed.
Its like managing one computer for multiple people.

I think we'll try this approach with the bulk mailer system (the proprietary
printer unit for this is network capable) it will take the computer off the
press floor but allow it to be used for the same purpose. This should
enhance the life of that expensive PC quite a bit since it won't be exposed
to the dust and heat of the presses and bindery equipment. In this case
we'll be checking the resources during bulk mailing to see if we can serve
out more than one station from this new host pc. I'm estimating two
additional low end users may be possible but I'm not selling idea that to
the client until I monitor the resources for awhile.
