      Even with cash we are ruled by I T, as you can not even buy anything if computers go down as no one knows the price as the bar code scanners are part of the I T system for price, description and stock control etc etc.

    Microsoft 365 includes things like the online versions of Word and Powerpoint. This is where we are at. Even some governments in the EU have gone ahead and started using LibreOffice and Linux as thier primary workflow. Don't depend on companies like this for basic functionality.
