Phillips, Richard L. – Computers and Education, 1981
An evaluation of a personal computer was conducted to determine its potential for applications normally assumed to require higher resolution, higher cost graphics devices. Its resolution, stand-alone computing power, and capability to function as a distributed computing element in a time-sharing system are discussed. Six references are listed.…
