About Account Ability

Russell purchased his first Macintosh computer in April 1984 three months after Steve Jobs introduced the Mac. Russell was a beta tester for Insight, the first major accounting software released on the Mac. In early 1985, Russell started his first consulting job for a client to move their paper accounting system to Insight on their new Macs. Part of the transition included a custom designed FileMaker database to track medical equipment sold for FDA purposes. In thirty years since that first transition, Account Ability has worked with over a hundred clients to assist them with AccountEdge/MYOB, FileMaker and Mac OS support.

David joined the company in 1992 as Account Ability’s first AccountEdge/MYOB Certified Consultant. A distinction we have maintained each year taking the certification test with each yearly update of AccountEdge.

Russell and David have taught many accounting and databases workshops at Apple’s Regional offices, Apple Stores and Apple Authorized Retailers.
