I remember Rick Votaw, he's still around.  His software
was low priced and could do anything but butter your bread.
His package is still available last time I talked to his
reps, although you may now be shunted to his PC
network version.

Their main number is (714) 578-5000.

His main package was called JobShop/3000.  So it
appears it reflected engineer-to-order manufacturing.
As I remember it, his G/L was a subset of MCBA's G/L.

As I recall, he got his start at his father's business,
now named I suspect Votaw Precision Technologies, where
he tweaked his software on their HP3000.
