Hi Kyle,

Yes, we are more careful with Mac OS X updates now.

See Ben Trumbull's post here for the nitty-gritty:

That email was a direct reply to my email.

Ben and I then spent a wonderful week making the App work better than it ever had before. He showed me techniques of performance monitoring and optimization that I might never have discovered. I smile just recalling it. He even poured over various instrument outputs and made golden suggestions which I've only now finished implementing (and debugging).

The App is absolutely singing.

Core Data stickies shows the basics of synchronizing multiple data stores.

I might have a look.

To solve your problem,

Do I have a problem?

I would go with a standard client-server approach, using a custom
protocol for communication between your POSes and a central server.
The server would be responsible for all business logic, while the POS
would only have responsibility for the till and the sales themselves.

I get the idea.

Your current solution, trying to get everyone to agree on the state of
the world at all times, is not generally considered good practice.

OK.

All the best,

Steve
