Oh yeah, man, FoxPro... for a year or so in 2008 I was responsible for a FoxPro database of music venues and artists for an agency. Felt really interesing to maintain a system that's older than me.

When we modernized all desktops in the office, I set up Win2k in Qemu on each of them, which loaded the FoxPro thing from a shared network mount. I'm just realizing 19-year-old me never checked if FoxPro supported simultaneous access. It surely did, at least I hope so :-)

edit: However, 19-year-old me was smart enough NOT to touch that Solaris or whatever-it-was server hosting the FoxPro thing.
