Surprisingly, such diverse
benefits as improving the way
we treat waste water to in
creasing the productivity of
dairy cows are being provided
by a computer that weighs less
than an office typewriter—so
pounds!
EXPERTS PREDICT that
new portable computers will
be within reach of every busi
ness by end of this decade.
This new computer, the IBM
5100, has a self-contained key
board, a video-like screen where
answers are displayed and a
tape cassette storage cartridge
that holds the equivalent of a
120-page report.
The first users to benefit from
the new machine are profes
sional problem solvers. In
Maryland, an ecology re
searcher aided by the new com
puter studied ways of treating
sewage and waste water. In
Georgia, a dairy farm
researcher uses one to improve
the productivity of dairy cows.
In California, an insurance
firm uses the 5100 to spot in
stantly any changes in health
and mortality statistics.
Interestingly, in each of these
instances it is not the size of the
computer alone that broadens
its use. It is the ease of working
with it. Experts predict that by
the end of the 1970s the small
computer will be within the
reach of every business in
America.
