This is a great idea.

I currently have a brick & mortar location, and I am closing it after 9 years(overhead is killing me). I am changing it to a internet store for local customers with free local delivery. Not all of my loyal customers use the internet, so I needed a way to take orders over the phone. I currently use QB retail acounting program(even that takes a degree to learn). Although I am not a programer, I do have a pretty good knowledge of how programing works. I haven't really leaned any language since DOS. But have gained a new interst since comming across ZC.

My interest is a working alternative that will allow me to track inventory, sales and COG, and I can plug the numbers into my QB. The biggest complaint I have about QB is that it seems that they never ran a business themselves where they had to do all the work. I digress!!

I understand there are addon's that you can use to add inventory(ie Easy Populate) but even that is not easy to master for a novice. The added benifit of POS sounds like a great idea.

I would like to help out in this project, but as a programer I would be useless. I hope to learn more, but until then I am willing to do any grunt work you may need, or just to add comment. If not I will be watching you work and cheering you on...
