[SLL] accounting software

[Phil Hughes]

I looked at all of these and more. I picked PostBooks.  Here are some of the
reasons:

 * It's real. That is, it is the baby brother to a commercial package.

 * The client (KDE-based) is the same for everything.

 * It is multi-lingual.

 * I like the way it was done. All the business logic is in Postgres. The
client is just that--just a guy to access the system.

That said, some people will be intimidated by it. It is very powerful and
pretty much forces you to do things right. I don't see that as bad and, in
fact, I could have avoided having two useless bookkeepers if I had used
PostBooks as a pre-employment test.
