Abstrakt: |
Attractive price/performance ratios for minicomputers lose some of their appeal once a potential user learns that individual peripherals required to complete a useful system - input/output (I/O) devices, mass storage units, etc. -may cost as much or more than the minicomputer itself. If a potential buyer is not dissuaded by that realization, he may be when he also learns that the peripherals may be useless without special interface devices; devices that he may have to design and build himself. |
