Evidently the software which runs on PickWiki.com is hard to navigate.  A few people have mentioned this to me.  And since the entire community is enhanced by the creation of additional resources, this page will show a few of the companies which use Pick.  I've created an additional page for those companies who historically used Pick but do so no longer. ("Companies That Used Pick")  For a general discussion of Pick resources and a bit of history see Pick, Universe, Unidata Resources.  And for the man himself see Richard "Dick" Pick.

Starting in the 1980s Pick Systems began publishing a book called "Pick Hits", which listed several hundred pages of software application vendors.  The first printing I remember was a smaller red book about the shape of a Reader's Digest, but a bit thicker.  Several years later, I purchased a large grey book about the shape of an encyclopedia volume.  I got rid of both of these copies over a decade ago, and now that I'm a historian, I wish I would have kept them.  Many articles could be created out of them today.  Pete Schellenbach of AccuSoft recently sent me yet another edition.  This is a large red covered spiral bound edition. which states copyright 1988 and inside a forward by Dick Pick states : "In this fifth printing of Pick Hits, we briefly outline more than 1,500 vertical applications, as well as nearly 200 horizontal applications and productivity tools.... we have included listings for Pick dealers, programmers and consultants... training centers, user groups and Pick licensees."  I believe the last edition of "Pick Hits" was probably in the early to mid-90s.
