In 1977, Dick and Jill and their associates brought mainframe and minicomputer skills to the then-new Radio Shack TRS-80 to bring big-computer power to the office desk. In 1981, they adopted the new IBM Personal Computer, and have continued to support PC-compatible microcomputers ever since.

General and custom MMS solutions have been used worldwide, starting with the MMSFORTH total software environment and MMSFORTH application modules including FORTHCOM, FORTHWRITE, and DATAHANDLER-PLUS. The big brother of DH+ is RapidFile, which many remember fondly as Ashton-Tate's answer to bulky and slow database software. (See the RapidFile front screen for its MMSFORTH licensing information.) And sorry, fans, but we must report that Borland International bought out Ashton-Tate and deep-sixed RapidFile, back when it was still v1.2, vintage 1987. In 1998, Borland became Inprise Corporation (until 2001) and apparently discontinued even the ability to download its old RapidFile patches; our searches there no longer find "RapidFile". MMS can convert old RapidFile applications to MS-Access and other database programs.

Nowadays, MMS delivers computer hardware selection, home and small-office networking, Internet and web design and general support, plus standard/custom software solutions using Microsoft Windows and Linux, MS-Access and Open Office, Mozilla/Netscape, and many copasetic programs. We support via e-mail and telephone worldwide, and offer effective office and home visits in eastern Massachusetts. MMS changes computers from problems to solutions.

Most MMS work is done on a consulting basis. However, you do not have to be a client to subscribe to MMS Client Messages. These are for the personal use of subscribers, and offer Windows/PC-based advice, flag money-saving opportunities at computer-chain store sales (typically, Best Buy, Circuit City, Office Depot, Staples) and more. Non-clients are welcome to subscribe for $25 through next June; it may save you hundreds of dollars, or your valuable data.
