84.0. "Database Management: "Acquisition"?" by SQM::RAVAN () Sun Aug 24 1986 22:21

    Have any of our friends across the pond heard anything about
    "Acquisition", a database management system for the Amiga? It is
    produced by Taurus-Impex Ltd. of England (according to the brochure),
    and is not yet available in the United States (according to a local
    dealer). It looks like a good product, even discounting the colorful
    prose that appears in advertising brochures; it appears to make full
    use of Amiga capabilities, and looks pretty flexible. But I'd
    appreciate any first-hand knowledge. 
    
    Thanks,

    While I have not seen the "Aquisition " product I have purchase
    the Transtime Technologies "Datamat 300" product and it appears
    to be super.......includes IFF format pictures in databases, and
    
    does statistics, applications generation short cuts, runtime modules
    for PC's,,etc, etc, etc. 

Could you give more detail about the Datamat 300 product ie How much$$,
    where is it available, what are you using it for (if that's
    appropriate) and why you chose it over other products??
    
    Thanks
