Comment on Ask HN: What is the most complex software that you have built/worked on?

Comments

During 1978-1979 single-handedly writing all of the data processing programs necessary to automate all departments in a 150-employee manufacturer of computer terminals on a 32KB RAM 50MB HD multiuser Pick O/S Microdata: order entry, purchasing, shipping, receiving, payroll, accounts receivable, accounts payable, MRP, QA, work orders, etc, etc, etc.

Did they use this up until the 2000's? It's the kind of software that sounds difficult to replace.

That sounds like fun
