"......Who in their right mind would use Jet for this or for anything important for that matter?"

To answer the above question:
A: A salesman who just got back from a MS sales conference. The sad part is I am not to suprised they would make a stupid move like using Jet considering I have worked at places that could not understand why their accounting system kept crashing once they got to 99,000 records. It was because the sales manager decided the entire accounting system should be run on MS Access because SQL Server or Oracle was to expensive which was the stated reason, the actual reason was that $30,000 or so he saved in not using a DBMS designed for large data sets was then given to him in the form of a bonus for his ability to save the company money. He quit 3 weeks after the product was completed and rolled out. Oh and it cost them an additional $100,000 after 3 months of problems to develop a new accounting system which they decided then to get input from their IS department.

Question: What database do the DIEBOLD ATM systems use for transactions?

If you are not angry can I have some of your drugs?
