This follow-up message is from:
Andrew Steacy <mailto:asteacy@ent.com.au>
Well I must say that for such an off the wall question, I received quite a number of very good answers.
Most recommended FoxPro, FoxBase, or Visual FoxPro 6
One recommended to code in C++ as this will then allow porting to anything! - Good advise but not for this situation where the programming has been 6 years in the making.
One that I did check on was some advise to see: "CodeBase, from <http://www.sequiter.com> -- it's a solid, extremely fast xbase engine that runs on just about every platform, including MacOS." This does indeed look to be just as the person says.
One last one suggested: "CodeWarrior... by using the SIOUX libraries... It creates a rudimentary TUI interface inside of a Mac window.... Some of the calls would have to be rewritten... but very minor..."
I would like to thank all who replied.

Greetings from GoGaGa Brand Radio!
This is an update to the message I sent about a year ago about how important Apple Macintosh computers have been to the productivity and success of our Internet Radio stations. (We keep the original message on our website at <http://www.gogaga.com/misc/gogaga_evangelist.html>)
Now I'm writing just to let you know that we got one of those fantastic iMacs which we're just thrilled with and put it in the heart of our Airstudio on our webcam for everyone to see.
You can check it out right now at: <http://www.gogaga.com/studiocam>
For some other great Mac-related stuff, check out the archives of the webcast we did live from the Digital Storytelling Festival in Crested Butte, Colorado. It includes a great interview with Harry Marks talking about how Macs have revolutionized telvision and film production, as well as Apple's own Creighton Nolte, and Apple's "relatives" like Brenda Laurel and Salon Magazine. These archives are at <http://www.gogaga.com/shows/ted/dsf>
Oh yeah, since people always ask, "what is GoGaGa anyway?" Here's the answer: it's "freeform eclectic" radio that plays music from every genre from ambient to zydeco and everything in between, and it's definately designed for people who like to think differently. For other great Internet Radio stations, check out our complete line up at <http://www.macroradio.net>
Thanks so much to everyone at Apple for making all these great things possible! __________________________ Digital Guy Sez:
