Excerpt from Agricultural Libraries Information Notes, Vol. 9: September 1983 Programs and data files that operate on one make of personal computer usually are not compatible with those of other inanufacturers. For this reason, nal has found it crucial to standardize on one model of personal computer for all applications which require a personal computer. We have decided on the ibm PC as thernicrocmnputer that most closelyineets nal needs. Lts principal advantages are an easy-to-use keyboard with both upper and lower case letters, ease of expandability, and the ibm reputation for service and maintenance.
