Our entire research grant history was kept in Filemaker on an obsolete Mac, under the research boss' desk. We were a Windows organisation, and had only one qualified Apple tech - who mainly did Windows.
It took about 10 years of absolute panic every time the Mac had a problem, and direction from the big bosses before said boss agreed to backed up network storage. Smart man, but IT stupid.
