HD Industries, Inc. Clients

Database Clients

Projects noted with a have a web component.

4D, Inc.: 4D publishes our favorite development tool, 4th Dimension. We've worked on a couple of things for 4D. The first is 4D Portal. A full featured web portal that provides a number of services (or 'portlets'). We worked on the forum, postcards, surveys, classified and chat, among others. I like to say we did the first 80% of the work and 4D staff did the last 80%. The second project is 4D WebMail and 4D WebMail Pro. Both are web based mail clients. Pro has more features. We're 100% responsible for these two If you need remote e-mail, you can borrow our webmail server here.

Apple Computer, Inc.: Apple Computer provides personal computer and related solutions throughout the world. We provided trouble-shooting on one of their in-house data bases.
