      @lnxw48a1 I wonder what size the biz's were or maybe how many are single person/very small (less than five?) biz.
      Our biz kept all employees (both of us), had some slowdown in April/May but is back to "normal" (not sure what normal for us really is) and no retail sales to speak of, the last was a server several years ago and due to sales tax and location of customers and us I will not be doing sales, I will just have them buy and I can install/config as needed, it worked with the last couple of computers.
