As a result, users are no longer tied to the particular database chosen by the software developers and can pick the one that best fits their unique needs. By allowing a choice of database and supporting software, the integration of PowerLender with other computer systems is an easier task. Another advantage of PowerLender Phase II is that it is "operating system neutral," meaning that it is compatible with any operating system that runs Java programs. Lenders can eliminate their dependence on Microsoft(R) Windows, something that will be more valuable as other operating systems, such as Linux(R) become more competitive, and dilute the dominant position of Windows on the PC market. "PowerLender Phase II is designed to make users more competitive through more flexible software by offering them more choice in what operating system and database software they are interested in using," added Liston. "This is all too rare, but is also increasingly necessary in competitive fields where technology plays a growing role." About ASC Associated Software Consultants, Inc.
