correct. I worry that the raspi wont be powerful enough for instance to generate reports of inventory so the business can make orders etc.

I was considering the pi the question is though is it powerful enough to perform necessary calculations one might find in a pos system

This is what Wikipedia (a great source of information) says:
Business model Unlike other microprocessor corporations such as AMD, Intel, Freescale (formerly Motorola) and Renesas (formerly Hitachi and Mitsubishi Electric), ARM only licenses its technology as intellectual property (IP), rather than manufacturing its own CPUs. Thus, there are a few dozen companies making processors based on ARM's designs. Intel, Samsung,[29] Texas Instruments, Analog Devices, Atmel, Freescale, Nvidia, Qualcomm, STMicroelectronics and Renesas have all licensed ARM technology. In the fourth quarter of 2010, 1.8 billion chips based on an ARM design were manufactured.I have been trying to find a contact email at arm but to no avail. Any
help
and information would be greatly appreciated.
If you're trying to find some inexpensive ARM-based board for your project, without having any additional information from you, I'd recommend you starting with a Raspberry Pi [1].
