I know of an elementary school where the lady in charge of the computer lab (the district gave in to the dark side !!) still uses her Apple 2gs !! She keeps records of all (ALL !!!) of the schools books, average of at least 900 students each year, with a large pen-sized scanner, and keeps other records as well. Amazing that the beast has been going strong for so many years, and almost flawlessly !!
