Ouch. It's the "American" part that stings the most. OTOH, I know that Italy 
has some of the most byzantine laws on taxation ever devised, so who am I to 
whine?

I'm afraid that Italian companies wont' be very happy with some sort of 
GAAP-inspired accounting package, and I'm positive that most of the payroll 
stuff won't be adaptable from the US rules into the Italian rules.

That said, I think everything else should work in Italy as well as USA. So, if 
I bring my own traveling pillow and, er... bladder buster (what's a bladder 
buster anyway? sounds nasty & painful!), can I come along?

One last remark re: TopSew. If it's the same embroidering company as 
www.topsew.com (should be, the php logo in their showcase is a dead giveaway), 
then I'm also interested in keeping up with their developments. Sounds like a 
make-to-order and/or engineer-to-order business process might fit the way they 
work.

Best,

Luca
