Aha
the old computerin-the-nack trick. You can sneak a computer into your lab without anyone even knowing. Digital makes a whole series of laboratory systems for special purpose jobs. Pulse height analysis, for instance. Or signal averaging. Or gas chromatography. These systems are called computer packs, and they come with all the needed hardware, all the needed software, all the interfaces your technician needs to get the job done. But it's the old computer-in-thepack trick. Hit a button and a glorious, 4096word, core memory, integrated circuit, 1.5-jusec fast, FORTRANspeaking, general-purpose
computer pops up. Presto. Out comes the software that runs more than 3,500 installations around the world. Some people play the computer packs on two shifts. From 9 to 5, they're just the best special purpose systems money can buy. After 5, well. . . . DIGITAL EQUIPMENT CORPORATION, Maynard, Massachusetts 01754.
