Best Small Database?
I'm getting to the point where in order to keep track of all my contacts, clients and prospects, I need to set up a small database.

Has to work on a PowerBook. Has to be user-friendly. Has to be non-threatening to English majors.
I'd also like it to peel grapes for me, but that's probably asking a bit much.

You could try googling "PIM powerbook freeware" and exploring but that does require EFFORT.
I came across SOHO Organizer ($)

But, definitely, you need a PIM (or a personal secretary) more than a database. Worst case, use a spreadsheet.

Why would I expend effort when I have you?
Seeing as you have that I.O.U. from when I was fifteen, you probably own my house at this point. And I might as well get, you know--something for my money.

Do you have MS Office? Access is very good for small dbases. Pretty easy to set up, very easy to maintain.

Access is easy, else Microsoft wouldn't have bought it from the people who designed it, and ther are lots of free databases available.
I'm ignorant of powerbook options though.
