| Abstract: | A pioneer in minicomputer software, ASK Computer Systems Inc. is recasting itself as a born-again client/server company. In February 1990 ASK unveiled its new product strategy for the 1990s. Embracing open systems, distributed computing, and hardware and database independence, the company's client/server software will appear first but is still six months off. It will be a new application for UNIX workstations and customers want it now. The first modules of the new family dubbed ASK ADVANCE, will include general ledger, order entry, accounts receivable and inventory control. ASK's broadened customer base by industries is shown in a diagram. |
