BUYERS' GUIDE TO HARDWARE
Welcome to the third edition of the Computer Publications
Buyers' Guide to Hardware. The response to previous guides indicates that they
are indeed a useful tool. Improvements to this year's guide make the
information contained in it even more accessible. There are more tables in this
issue. Information is comparitively easy to assimilate in this form. The
chapter on service and accessory suppliers is completely tabular now. The
suppliers index has been upgraded and includes a statement from each
distributor outlining its marketing strategy. This adds depth to that section
and gives a glimpse of the company itself as well as the products that it
supplies. We wish you all the best in your search for hardware products in
'89/90 and look forward to being on your bookshelf until next year.

Using the Guide to Hardware
For obvious reasons, this is not the type of book you'd read
from front to back. Therefore, we have provided a number of tools that enable
you to extract the information you need.
Buying the right hardware c be . a daunting experience. Most
adv1srs m the computer industry have vested interests and tend to throw jargon
around as if it were actually going to assist in some way. The Buyers' Guide to
mrdware aims to steer you towards making the right purchasing decision, and
pesents a clear, comprehensive overview of what's available in the marketplace.
Whether it be a printer, a monitor or a communications solution you need,
product information has been colleced and compiled into meaningful categones
for easy comparison. Categories are two-tiered. Firstly, each chapter within
the Buyers' Guide to Hardware represents a different function performed by
microcomputer hardware. For example, there is a chapter for the processors
themselves, another for output devices (printers), and a chapter for display
devices (primarily monitors). Input devices, storage devices, expansion cards
and devices that link computers together also have their own chapters. These
product chapters are followed . by a chapter listing the companies that provide
services or sell accessories and consumables for computers. Secondly, within
these chapters, products are grouped into similar types of competing products.
In fact, we have tried to predict the decisions that you might make before you
start your research. We assume, for example, that

YOU?
you will decide whether you want a laptop computer or a
desktop PC before you start worrying about how fast the processor runs. To
assist you in picking your way through product information, ach chapter begins
with a short ut(me of he organisation employed within, and _ineludes a listing
of the product categones. This explains the methodology used for dividing up
the chapters and ensures tat you can turn to the relevant section quickly. Each
chapter ends with a glossary of terms to take the mystery out of the language
used in describing the products. Introductory articles have been incorporated
into the front of the Guide and have been written with the first-time user in
mind. The topics covered aim to provide an indication of where the market is
going, which products and features are here to stay and which are becoming
redundant. They should assist you in dealing with the volume of terminology and
dubious sales hype that many sales people will try and inundate you with.
Tables are included at the end of chapters or - as is the case towards the end
of the Guide - make up chapters in their own right. The tables outline the
major features of those products where the distributor has supplied the
necessary information. These are especially useful for comparing a large number
of products and compiling a short list of the most likely candidates. Tables
should be read in conjunction with the product descriptions as man}' features
not covered in the tables are described there. Updated tabular information
appears regularly in PC Week. The PC Week Buyers' Guides concentrate on a
particular subject of interest in detail, each week. The lists of suppliers
included at the end of each chapter give you a ready reference to the companies
active in a given area. They are useful in a number of ways. Besides the
obvious relevance to people doing business in a certain product area, they can
also assist in tracking down a company, checking the company name or simply
investigating if it distributes a particular type of product. While the
descriptions of products have been supplied by distributors, they have all been
edited to ensure an evenhanded approach and readability. They include notes about
features that might not have been mentioned in the tables and, where there has
been no

tabular information supplied, sometimes make up the only
information available. It is impossible to avoid jargon in this industry.
Therefore, as well as trying to minimise it, we have included the glossaries of
terms. These glossaries not only make the information in the tables
comprehensible, but they also offer insight into the many aspects of a
particular type of product. In a nutshell, the glossaries are a very concise
summary of the state of the art in a given area of technology. tributor(s) if
you know the name of the manufacturer. This is also useful for people who want
to do business with overseas companies. It tells a tale of local
distributorships and may even give an indication of a manufacturers' attitude
toward exclusivity. Between these three indices you should be able to add flesh
- well let's stick to silicon - to vague memories, rumours or other sources of
incomplete information. If, however, you can't find the product at all, then
it's more than likely that the rumour you are chasing is exactly that. It is
also still true, unfortunately, that there are a lot of products manufactured
overseas that do not cross these shores.
Desperately seeking X
From the top
Having overheard two industry heavies at the next table in
the exhibition centre cafe discussing a super new electronic wonder, you are
desperate to get hold of one.
Who's who
'In a nutshell, the glossaries are a very concise summary of
the state of the art in a given area of technology.'
Alternatively, it might be that the boss has rushed fuming
from his office, raving that in this modern day and age it must be possible to
perform a ridiculously simple function, automatically. A half remembered review
lurks in the back of your brain, but how do you get hold of the item that your
employer demands? There are three snippets of information that will enable you
to hunt down Product X in the Buyers' Guide. The alphabetic product index is
the immediate obvious solution if you know the product name. It will direct you
to the correct page and give you the name of the distributor and manufacturer
as well as numerous other details, within seconds. Sometimes a little creative
searching may be required. The product might be listed with a brand name in
front of it, or by a model number rather than a descriptive name. In the worst
case, you would have to scan the product names in the chapters that you felt
were appropriate. Should you have a distributor name instead, then the
distributor index will tell you which chapters the suppliers have entries in.
In addition, the manufacturers index will enable you to track down the dis-

The distributor index enables readers to contact a
distributor and order a product, or to find the local distributor's name. This
index provides a comprehensive picture of the companies that operate within the
microcomputer industry in Australia. Branch office addresses are provided along
with a company profile supplied by the company itself. The profile is intended
to help you form a picture of the company, its attitude and positioning in the
market. This might be useful if you have a shortlist of fairly similar
products. A list of chapters in which a company has product entries also serves
to give readers an indication of the range of products handled. Due to
limitations on space and time, this index does not inrJl!de dealers there are
far too many of them. Many distributors are reluctant to supply their dealers
lists. However, all companies that import products or manufacture locally are
listed. This means that only products imported by distributors appear beside
their name in the index. For example, a company that imports motherboards and
keyboards, but sources its hard disks and monitors locally, is going to appear
in this index as a motherboard and keyboard importer, rather than as a total
systems supplier. We are reassured by reader feedback for previous issues that
these Guides are more than occasionally useful. We trust that you will find
them valuable again this year. It is a major undertaking to compile these
issues, and we would like to thank those suppliers who have willingly complied
with our requests for what is inevitably, quite detailed information.
Suggestions for improving future Guides are welcome.

Accounting for your needs
Walter Dowling points out that finding the best deal and
planning for the future can be a little difficult if you try to do both at the
same time.
I am an accountant. This is often perceived as a fairly
dull-okay, downright dull - occupation, but neither was the wise old owl
renowned for party antics. The problem with being an accountant is that you
have to work to the bottom line. Every one else in the company has bright ideas
- a flair for selling or solving the problems associated with nuclear fusion -
but the accountant somehow has to make the figures add up so that there is a
profit at the end of the year. Computers present the accountant with a classic
dilemma. They are expensive - it is easy to waste a lot of money on the wrong
system - but they are an indispensable way of saving large sums of money. Most
of an accountant's work takes the form of processing numbers, an application
that computers are supposedly well suited to but never seem to do quite right.
It's not that they make errors, but simply that they never seem to be able to
produce the exact report needed. This recalcitrance is triply frustrating if
you just happened to grow up in the age of the ledger and log table, and worked
and trained using comptometers and double-sided entry books. A company was
either well organised or not. If it was, the accounts were up to date: the
right reports were generated on the right day of the month, and you could sit
burning the midnight oil with the person who had added endless columns of
figures incorrectly, and get them right. Working for such a company, you could
well be forgiven for conceiving that the strange box in the comer noisily
spitting out reams of pages could somehow revolutionise your life. However,
Page JO Hardware Guide

when it became obvious to management that you actually liked
sitting around at audit time with your green pencil and books spread across the
table - that it was part of the 'style' of being an accountant - management's
argument really got gritty: the computer was going to replace some of your
colleagues and make the bottom line easier to keep black. A sacristy had been
defiled. So we smirked over teething problems and laughed through the months
where the computer data was lost, and trotted back to the books to get the
'real' figures. But the computer eventually found its feet. A generation of
accountants are now emerging that have never seen a log table. For them, the
computer is a tool much like a ruler or a rubber. And these modem young things
can explain relatively easily why it is that the rei;>ort you want cannot be
produced given ',he type of data structure employed and the size of the ROM or
RAM, or whatever it is. Not that there was anything to top the flexibility of
the computer in the days when we worked on paper. It is just that we were
incorrectly led to believe that the computer could retrieve data in any form,
once that data had been entered.
The best laid plans
The point of this slightly digressive tale is that I am now
hardened and suspicious when it comes to agreeing that $130,000 in computer
equipment to streamline the sales department is well spent. I will accept that
a new production line should be computerised, or that while upgrading the
furnace, the latest electronic gadget could be introduced. I
will even buy the line that goes: if we are about to
re-organise a department or an invoicing procedure and it's already going to
cost money, why not spend up big on new equipment as part of the change.
However, I absolutely balk at the suggestion that money spent computerising
something that already works fine is cost effective. Even when a computer is
necessaryand I have already admitted that I have come to accept that it often
is - ill advised haste, or hastily assembled advice, can often render many
'person' years of work redundant. A lot of the money that companies waste is spent
in the development of software that is not right for the job. Fortunately, I am
not concerned with that here. But serious errors are also made in the
purchasing of hardware. There are two main classes of purchasing cock-ups as
far as I am concerned. First! y, there's the 'everyone with a good idea please
spend money' approach, and secondly, the much more insidious but ultimately
containable: 'the expert has decided what is good for all of us and has already
spent the money'. Microcomputers have encouraged people to consider local
solutions. The PC is really just a cranked up calculator, but if it helps me
prepare my monthly reports I should use it. This is perfectly natural and so
far quite correct. However, what happens is that it does not stop there. Others
copy the leader's example so that everyone who has to hand in a monthly report
gets a PC and a copy of the same software package, and suddenly a de facto

slightly different PCs and when a printer is plugged in nearly everyone has a
different problem which is unique to their combination of computer, word
processing software, spreadsheet and printer model. A committee is formed that
includes no-one from accounts, and most of the PCs are put in a cupboard while
new ones are bought in an attempt to standardise. Notice so far that no-one has
given thought as to whether the intended solution will integrate with the long
terms plan of the company. Another method mucking up the general flow of things
can take on a variety of forms, but usually involves a DP manager who closets
s/himself with the office manager and concocts harebrained schemes to save
maternity leave costs by running programs designed to sidetrack the office

to do what is wanted because there is already a priority list of unsightly jobs
waiting to be done. The problem, of course, is lack of planning and the
solution the reverse.

about the type of software that you need to purchase now and the upgrade path

1990s, we are told. Apple's share of the microcomputer market remains healthy.
The Macintosh is well accepted in the corporate world, and two machines
released in the last six months, the Mac SE/30 and IICX, filled the hole that
existed in the middle of the range. It seems certain from pronouncements by
Apple executives that the company plans to release cheaper as well as faster
machines this year. The 68030 microprocessor that runs the Mac IIX, IICX and
SE/30 chugs along at a lowly 16MHz. However, Motorola has already released a
25MHz version of the 68030 and has announced that its successor, the 68040,
will run at 33MHz. Once Apple has reduced its stockpile of 120ns DRAMs, expect
to see faster processors in the Mac range. have been refined and are being put
into production. Printers are also speeding up. Dot matrix devices are printing
characters faster, while lasers are boosting their page per minute output. The
other noticeable trend is that features are migrating down the price range.
Therefore, it is now cheaper to buy a printer with sophisticated paper handling
features than it was 12 months ago. Printer prices have fallen, but not to the
extent that PCs have. Printers are still largely mechanical devices and are not
affected by the same economies of scale. The design cost is a very large
component in the price of any new chip, and is a one-off cost that is gradually
recouped over the first few years of manufacture. After that, prices drop
quickly. The manufacture of the printer's mechanical parts is always a major
component of cost. However, the 'smarts' that determine such features as the
fonts or paper handling are getting cheaper, enabling developers to incorporate
these features into less expensive devices. The 24-pin dot matrix printers still
dominate the premium end of the range, although Epson now includes a 48-pin
model in its range. The cheaper end still favours 9-pin printers, but these are
now beginning to rival the 24-pin in terms of print quality and features. The
anomalous 18-pin devices have disappeared. Laser printers are becoming cheaper
too, and entry-level versions are beginning to fall below the $3000 mark. The
prices for PostScript machines are also dropping, and Adobe is pushing hard to
knock them down even further. The 400dpi (dots per inch) laser printer is
expected to surface within the coming year. These printers will grab the high
end of the market, and will be especially suited to desktop publishing
applications. Although colour lasers have been around for a while, they're
still not having, much of an impact. Colour printers are either expensive or
low resolution. Hewlett-Packard's PaintJet, for example, is still close to the
$3000 mark and has a resolution of only I 80dpi. During the past year VGA has
become the graphics standard for monitors. A system is either sold with a VGA
board and monitor, or it is sold with a simple monochrome screen. However,

This is all great gee whiz stuff, but let s step back for a
moment and see what it means for the PC hardware industry. For one thing, it's
a very tough market. There's not much to differentiate one machine from another
and the chip makers, most notably Intel, are continually developing their
technology and cramming processing power onto each chip in order to deliver
more speed. More 33MHz '386 machines will hit the market this year, and by the
end of the year we will see the first PCs based on the 25MHz '486 chip.

HARDWARE
Twisted-pair wiring is the lest expensive option and usually
contains one or more lots of two insulated opper w1_res twisted together to
form a pa1. The_ twist. m g reduces crosstalk, which is the . leakage of a
signal from one w_ire to another. Until recently, unshelded twisted-pair (as
opposed to shielded twisted-pair such as IBM's Type 1 able) was only suitable
for low transrrussion speeds, however, the IEEE's _ IOaseT Committee is very
close to issuing a high-speed standard for this medium. Optical fibre cable is
the newest and also the most expensive cabling for LANs. Fibre optic cables
have cylindrical glass cores surrounded b cldding material with a lower
refractive index. The optical fibre acts as a waveguide for light pulses which
_are modulated to act as information earners. PC workstations are connected to
the LAN cable with network interface cards (NICs, but also variously known as
network cards, network boards or network adaptors). The NIC fits into one of
the workstation's available expansion slots (usually any slot, but sometimes
conflicts with other expansion cards or boards can occur). When a workstation
user sends a message to the network, the message is directed through the
expansion slot and into the NIC. The NIC has on-board firmware that divides the
message into units called packets and addresses them for transmission. The NIC
also collects incoming packets addressed to it and passes them to the PC
workstation. Part of the NI C's firmware implements a cable access scheme so
that packets enter the network in an orderly manner without colliding with
other packets on the network. The most common PC LAN access methods are based
on contention and token passing schemes. The IEEE's contention-based 802.3
Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) standard,
otherwise known as Ethernet, is the most widely used PC LAN scheme, although
Token-Ring (802.5) and Token-Bus (802.4) schemes are also widely implemented.
To help speed cable access and network processing, many NICs have on-board
processors and their own random access memory (RAM). This is because many lower
rated 8086 or even 80286-based PC workstations are hard pressed to reset the
NIC after a transmission as quickly as necessary in a heavy workload
environment. If the NIC isn't reset quickly enough, it loses packets, which
then must be retransmitted. The processor is typically an Intel 80186 or faster
CPU and the onboard memory can be anything from 8k to IMbyte. PC LAN
workstations are typically IBM or IBM-compatible PCs, although most vendors now
offer the capability to connect Apple Macintoshes. LANs also support 'LAN
workstations' or diskless PCs, which are simply PCs without any disk drives and
are typically smaller and sometimes faster than conventional PCs. Mass storage
in PC LANs is usually provided by a central machine known as a file server (or
network server), which is often dedicated to that task. File servers can be
conventional PCs, but increasingly they are especially designed for that task.
Note that with most application software available today, the file server
simply manages the mass storage resources and does not actually run application
programs. In many cases mass storage can also be distributed around a LAN
either in the form of PC workstations with hard disk drives or purpose-built
mass storage devices.
Desktop communications
Mark Smeaton uno:7ers the development of PC communications,
and explains host connectivity, remote interconnection and local area networks.
The early days of personal computing in corporate
environments were marked by a good deal of scepticism and even resistance from
the older and bolder DP staff brought up on the 'bigger is better' ethos. By
definition, PCs were only useful for very personalised work and as standalone
machines they could be used by only one use_r at a time. Also, they ran their
own applications and maintained their own data and so were incompatible with
recognised DP control procedures. Not unreasonably, it was feared that their
introduction was likely to lead to a duplication, or at worst, a diminution of
corporate data resources. Nevertheless, users liked hem and despite the
misgivings_ of the DP die-hards, PCs pro_ltferated at an alarming rate in most
mainframe and mini-based corporations. They also provided the first taste of
computing . power for many smaller companies that previously could not afford
computing at all. With their proliferation it also became obvious that the
productivity gains they broght to an company on a standalone as1s could be
multiplied if they were linked to other computing resources. Consequently, a
strong user-driven push developed for PC communications tools, the basic
functions of which were easily identified: a way to access the corPage 18

porate mainframe or mini; a way to access remotely located
information; and ruably the most important, a way to Join PCs together. These
demands coalesced into the tree main categories of PC communications t_ht we know
today: host connecnvrry, remote interconnection and local area networks (LANs).
LANs can usually be distinguished from WANs (wide area networks) and MANs
(metropolitan area networks) on the basis of geography. A local area network is
'local' in geographic scope - usually
Local area networks
an office, a building or a campu. WANs may span the entire
country or even the globe, and MANs are usually defined as networks with a
diameter of less than 50km. LANs can also be distinguished on the basis of
connectivity or the ability of any node to communicate with any other node (in
a PC LAN node is usually a PC, sometimes also referred to as a LAN
workstation). According to the IEEE's 802 Committee, a "Local area network
is a data communications system which allows a number of independent devices to
communicate with each other." PC LAN hardware takes the form of building
blocks which can be added and configured as needed. The basic . components are:
cabling, network interface cards, workstations, network file server and mass
storage devices. Cables serve as the physical medium or pathway along which
interconnected PC workstations communicate. PC LAN cabling comes in several
different flavour including twisted-pair, coaxial and optical fibre. The. most
c_ommon cable type in use today is coaxial, or coax. Coax is made with a single
wire conductor surrounded by a stranded ground wire. The two wires are_
separated by a thick insulating core, while another insulating jacket protects
the outside surface.
Host connectivity
Host computer systems, whether they're mainframes or
minicomputers, are designed to support workstations commonly known as 'dumb'
terminals. A dumb terminal has no processing power of its own and must rely on
the host for its intelligence. The idea of using PCs to replace dumb terminals
was born soon after PCs started to compete with their unintelligent cousins for
space on corporate desktops. The methodology employed was simply to have the PC
'emulate' or pretend to be a terminal. PCs, of course, are intelligent devices
and to have them pretend to be unintelligent may not seem a forward step.
However, to have the PC and the host actually process data co-operatively is an
extremely complex task, and one that is only now being addressed. Terminal
emulation for PCs is typically provided by an add-in board and accompanying
software, although some solutions are achieved solely with software. As well as
enabling the PC to pretend it's something it's not, emulation packages
generally provide for file transfers, file conversions, screen dumps, multiple
host sessions and context switching between host and PC sessions. Solutions in
some shape or form are available for most large systems, including those from
IBM, DEC, Bull, Hewlett-Packard and Data General. In the IBM environment, many

HARDWARE
emulators are available to provide the functionality of
IBM's widely used 3270 series mainframe and 5250 series minicomputer
(System/34, /36 and /38) terminals. Through the 3270 emulator, virtual circuits
are established between the host and the terminal device. In the case of the
commonly used 3270 series, the host is an IBM System/370 series computer and
the PC is attached via coax to a cluster controller. IBM cluster controllers
allow 327X devices to share a communications line or 370 channel in order to
reduce costs. In traditional 370 products, the controller is a separate machine
such as the IBM 3274 or 3276. In newer 370 machines, like the 9370, the
controller function is handled by an adaptor board. Emulators are available to
make the personal computer look like either the 3278 or 3279 terminal. Because
the PC is not a terminal, the emulation may have to use a couple of tricks in
order to look like one. For example, the 3278 Model 2 display is PC compatible
with 24 lines and 80 characters; however, the Model 3 has a 33 line display and
the Model 4 a 43 line display. In these cases, the emulators usually make use
of the PC's PgUp and PgDn keys to control the screen. Similarly, keyboard
mapping can also be a problem and many vendors provide cardboard templates
which are placed over the PC's keyboard and label the function of various key
combinations. The introduction of local area networks has seen a new
development in PC-to-host communications - the concept of the LAN gateway.
These have been developed in order to take advantage of the common
communications backbone that the LAN provides. Rather than each PC being
equipped with an emulator board and an individual host connection, the gateway
approach makes use of a single LAN PC workstation only. This PC is usually
dubbed the 'communications server' and is often equipped with a device that
allows it to emulate a 3274 cluster controller. This machine is connected to
the host and it 'serves' host sessions to LAN workstations. These workstations
still require emulation software, but the need for individual connections and
emulation boards is removed. Gateways can support up to 128 host sessions for
LAN users and often can enable a particular user to have five or more
simultaneous sessions running. However, a common problem with this approach is
that response time on corPage 20 Hardware Guide

porate networks is rarely as good when running with a LAN
gateway as with individual emulation boards. Hard-wired schemes such as LANs
and PC-to-mainframe connections meet only part of many PC users' communications
requirements. There is often a third requirement for remote interconnection the
ability to access remotely located computers. Remote interconnections are most
often achieved through the combined use of a 'modem' and the public telephone
network. Modems are devices which convert the digital bits from a computer into
an analogue form suitable for transmission across the telephone network. Modems
come in many flavours, shapes and sizes and can be either external units or PC
add-in boards. External units are generally connected by a cable to the PC's
RS-232C or 'serial' communications port. Two basic criteria are used to
determine their capabilities: speed and error correction.
Remote interconnection
'File servers can be conventional PCs, but increasingly they
are especially designed for that task.'
Modem speeds are expressed as 'baud' rates, which are rough
approximations of throughput measured in bits per second. Modems generally used
in conjunction with PCs can have baud rates varying from 300 to anything up to
19,200 and beyond. These speeds and some error correction techniques have also
been incorporated in a series of standards issued by the Consultative Committee
for International Telegraph and Telephone (CCITT), a technical and scientific
standards group based in Europe. Hence, modems are often described in terms of
their CCITT compliance. For example, a V.22 modem is one that complies with the
standard for I 200bps full-duplex transmission. Error correction techniques are
not so clear cut, and many vendors implement proprietary methods or various
levels of the widely recognised MNP protocol. Error correction is necessary in
order to
overcome the often poor quality of telephone lines which can
lead to garbled transmissions. Note that error correction often considerably
slows a modem's throughput and some nominally high-speed modems often fail to
achieve anything like their full rating for this reason. Pricing can range from
a few hundred dollars to several thousand depending on capability. However,
like most computer equipment, the prices for modems are falling and several
vendors are now offering 9600 baud V.32 compliant modems for around $3000. In
the LAN environment, many vendors now offer asynchronous gateways which control
one or more modems for the use of all network users. A gateway attached to
multiple modems is known as a modem pool. 'Multiplexers' (or 'rnuxes') are
another type of communications hardware commonly used in conjunction with
modems. They allow a number of devices to share a single communications line
and come in two primary flavours: frequency division multiplexers and time
division multiplexers. A frequency division multiplexer breaks the available
circuit bandwidth into subchannels, whereas a time division multiplexer shares
the transmission time between communicating devices. Statistical time division
multiplexers ('stat muxes') are a commonly found variation on the time division
theme. Remote interconnections can also be made with packet switching X.25
networks. X.25 is another CCITT standard and has been widely implemented around
the world for data communications. In Australia, the public X.25 network is
known as Austpac. X.25 links can be achieved with an X.25 gateway device or
with a modem. Modem-X.25 links also make use of P ADs assemblers/disas(packet
semblers) in order to put the data into the right form for transmission. Some
manufacturers are beginning to combine PADs and modems into integrated units.
An integrated X.25 PAD/modem essentially combines the features of a standard
asynchronous modem and those of a PAD into one standalone unit. With an
integrated unit, an end user's call leaves his or her modem already converted
into X.25 format, so the call can bypass the network's PAD and go straight into
the network. These products have yet to gain widespread acceptance, but may
well do with the rise in X.25 usage.
The big two, two years on
· the progress of the latest-generation micros from IBM and
Apple Jim Seymour reviews and tells two very different tales.
portant strategic goal: getting large corporations to take
the Mac senouly. From a beachhead in a very few application areas, in the hands
of a _relatively small tribe of zealots, the Macintosh has moved squarely into
the mainstream. What about advancing IBM's two most important strategic
directions knocking off the PC clone vendors and tying together the IBM product
line, from mainframes at the top to PCs at the bottom, under its SN A/SAA
scheme? The PS/2s have actually boosted sales at IBM's biggest clone making
competitors, which delivered more pe_rformance and value in systems built
around the standard PC/ AT bus, a market that IBM simply abandoned until very
recently. Sales of PC compatibles from Compaq, Tandy, and many others have
boomed over the past two years, while PS/2 sales have until recently sunk well
below Big Blue's expectations. . PS/2 sales were so sluggish for the first year
that IBM was reduced o talking about the machines' success in Europe (the Models
30, 50 and 80) while essentially abandoning the sleepy Model 60. IBM's
corporate profits sagged badly during this time. The company where no one ever
gets fired offered early retirement schemes to thousands of employees and moved
thousands of others out of IBM plants and offices into sales jobs. And IBM's
dealers were forced back into the greymarket business. IBM's dealer pricing for
PS/2s mae them profitable only when bought in huge quantities, so dealers
returned to ordering many more computers than they could sell. As a result, the
PS/_2 grey i:narket flourished, with machmes selling at street prices as low as
$10 to $15 more than IBM's deepest dealer prices. What a story. Draw your own
conclusions about the next two years.
Hardware Guide Page 21
Not so Jong ago we celebrated an odd pair of anniversaries
in the personal coputer business. Two years go, on Apnl 2 1987 IBM introduced
its new odd couple:, the PS/2 PCs and the OS/2 operating system. Both products
were profound changes for IBM. The PS/2 abandoned the PC and PC/ AT bus
designs, which were industry standards and allowed vendors of C compatibles to
build whole compames around flogging IBM copies. . .. IBM also abandoned
compatibility with its earlier line, at least on the physical interface level.
The OS/2 operating system would, IBM assured us, tolerae MS-DOS applications,
running them in what OS/2 co-developer Microsoft had been calling the
'compatibility box'. But from then on, we were told, we should look for
important PC programs to be released first for OS/2, then later, if at all, for
DOS. Two months earlier, Apple had rolled out the Macintosh II, marking the
most profound change of direction for the company since the introduction of the
Mac itself three years earlier. Where the original Mac had been small and cute,
the Mac II was big and brawny. Where previous Mac hardware configurations had
been resolutely standardised, the Mac II offered IBM-style expansion slots to
allow users (well, third-party vendors) to virtually rebuild the machine. And,
while earlier owners of Macs had soon come to apologise for their machines'
lack of computing power, the Mac II reeked of power and growth. It's now two
years later. Over those two years, the Mac II has succeeded in achieving
Apple's most irn-
'OS/2 has earned even more disdain and sells today as a
novelty, not as a tool.'
Sales of the Macintosh II soared. Apple was buoyed by the
flood of cash; dealers found the Mac II such a powerful sell that street prices
stayed near list. Machines were often in short supply. And at IBM, what hath
the PS/2s and OS/2 wrought? In the past two years, the Micro Channel PS/2s have
brought down on IBM unprecedented disdain fr?m such unaccustomed IBM bashing
quarters as The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times. . The PS/2's Micro
Channel architecture has been hooted at as ·o_d_oo technology', and the
incompatibiliries with earlier PCs have angered customes who feel that their
huge investments in PC/AT bus machines and cards have been forgotten by IBM.
Similarly. OS/2 _ still big, clumsy, expensive and without significant value
for the overwhelming majority of users - has earned even more disdain and sells
today as a novelty, not as a tool.

Ergonomically speaking
Richard Jinman delves into computer ergonomics and asks, are
you sitting comfortably?
If yoU Were asked to compile a list of the PC · · most

would be surpned if it made the list at all. That percept1.on runs contrary to
the growing interest i.n con:iputer ergonomics (the. relatonsh1p between humans
and their working environment). As more and more people confront a PC at work,
the pressure on suppliers to provide comfortable and hassle-free computing is
mounting. Standards authorities are aleady on the case. In the US, the Amencan
National Standards Institution has released a 90-page set of recommendations
for the , human factors engineering' of computer workstations. The
International Standards Organisation, and our Standards Australia are both
following suit. Mike Sanderson, the committee executive officer responsible for
human factors at Standards Australia, said that a draft copy of its guidelines
had alread.Y been sent to interested parties. Their comments will be used to
compile a finished document for publication later this year. . The Australian
guidelines, entitled 'Screen-Based Workstations', will be divided into three
sections: VDUs, workstation furniture and input devices. "It won't be a
mandatory" standard," said Mr Sanderson. "What it will provide
is a reference for purchasers of computer equipment in particular." · So
what are the perils of using a PC? Te first, and the least obvious problem, is
that of immobility. Sitting at the PC has to be one of the least animated
occupations humanity has yet invented. Even

The perils
<<PAGE BREAK>>HARDWARE
traditional office work involved a greater degree of
movement. The PC has done away with all that. The result? Long-term PC users
are beginning to report a variety of ailments, such as headaches, blurred
vision and dizziness. These can be combined with keyboard-induced injuries to
the fingers and wrists - the syndrome known as RSI (repetitive stress injury).
In its extreme form, RSI can be very serious. Some users have experienced
carpal tunnel syndrome - a finger' paralysing injury caused when the nerves
running from the fingers to the arm are pinched at the wrist. Less serious, but
extremely unpleasant, are the finger injuries received by word processor
operators pushing over lOOwpm (words per minute) on PC keyboards. The short
answer to RSI is to give yourself plenty of breaks from the machine. You don't
have to do Tai-Chi, but it's a good idea to stretch your muscles and flex your
wrists. Watch out for sharp edges on the keyboard as well, and make sure you
use the board's legs to create a comfortable typing gradient. Office furniture
can also make a difference. One estimate says that the average office worker
spends 75,000 hours behind a desk, so it's important to feel comfortable. Let's
start with your chair. The factors here are adjustability, support for the
lower back, and arm-rests which don't obstruct. Probably the best kind are the
ergonomic chairs which can be adjusted pneumatically. Good models will have 10
to 15 settings to play with. Make sure you are at a height that allows you to
extend your arms over the keyboard without discomfort. Mark Bullock, of
Sydney-based Sylex Ergonomics, suggests that a chair should also feature a
'waterfall' drop front. The design ensures that circulation is not restricted
in the legs. Sylex 'stop-of-therange ergonomic chairs, which enforce a good
posture, whichever position you adopt, cost around $650. The positioning of the
screen can also be critical. Basic adjustments can be made using the monitor's
tilt and swivel base, and experts recommend that you place the monitor 20
degrees below the line of sight. If you want to go one step further, monitor
arms provide the ultimate adjustability: freeing up desk space, and allowing
you to place the display exactly where you want it. on-screen contrast.
However, for most people that just isn't practical, so make sure that you
maximise the contrast using the monitor's control panel. Remember - contrast,
not brightness is the issue here. Perhaps the greatest problems for your eyes
are glare and reflection. The simple answer is not to sit with the screen
facing a window. If you don't have blinds, you' 11 soon find the display
reduced to a squint-inducing mass of reflections. There are several methods
which screen vendors use to combat glare. The most common involves etching the
surface of the picture tube, which is achieved chemically, or by sand-blasting.
Etched screens scatter reflected light at all angles - instead of straight back
into your eyes - but they also affect the light coming from the CRT (cathode
ray tube). The result is a slight blurring of the screen image. through once,
so a smaller amount is absorbed by the filters. Polarising filters can do a
good job, but in some cases, the reflection will simply be transferred to the
surface of the filter. Glare· is probably the most severe screen irritation,
but there are others. Sharpness - which is related to resolution - screen
flicker, ghosting and jitter (the constant shaking of the image) are all
phenomena to avoid when choosing a monitor. If your eyesight is less than
perfect, watch out. Contact-lens wearers tend to forget to blink when using PCs
- which dries the eye and leads to considerable irritation. Bifocal lens
wearers are also at risk. Your near-focus lens will provide correct focus at a
distance of around 12 inches, but the computers screen will typically be set l
8in to 24in from your gaze. If you work for a large organisation like IBM, your
employer will pay for a pair of computer glasses. They allow you to focus at
the right distance, and avoid all that discomfort. Many smaller companies will
at least subsidise an ordinary pair of glasses if you can convince them that
working in front of a PC. is putting your eyes under strain. Even if your eyes
are 20/20, a solid day at the monitor will still take its toll. If possible,
position the screen so that you can look across the office, or out of the
window, when you raise your eyes. If you 're staring at a blank wall when you
look up from, say a spreadsheet application, your eyes won't be able to refocus
and relax. Less clear cut are the affects of VDU radiation on health. Well
publicised US cases (such as that of two female VDU operators who developed
cancer of the cervix in 1980), have led to a good deal of research in the US,
Europe and Australia. The consensus opinion seems to be that the evidence is
still insufficient to cause alarm. Standards Australia's guidelines will not be
considering the radiation emission of VDUs, and Mr Sanderson feels that,
"the general consensus is that the amount of radiation emitted is very
low." Computer ergonomics is a subject that is here to stay - particularly
as more and more senior managers encounter PCs. Irritations such as tired eyes
may sometimes seem trivial, but don't allow them to persist. You're going to be
spending a lot of time at the PC, so create the most healthy environment you
can.

'Even if your eves are 20/20, a solid day at the monitor
will take its toll.'
Better glare resistance is provided by screen coatings from
Optical Coating Labs Incorporated (OCLI). The drawback here though, is that
they are expensive and will show up your fingerprints with a clarity that even
Scotland Yard would admire. If your screen vendor hasn't provided sufficient
anti-glare treatment, you can add extra protection yourself. Screen filters are
available in three forms-plastic or nylon mesh, OCLI coated filters, and
polarising filters. Obviously, the mesh solution is the least expensive of the
group (prices range from around $50 to $70), but it suffers from a tendency to
collect dust, and consequently reduces the clarity of the screen's image. OCLI
is effective but expensive. Prices start at $99 and go up to around $179.
Polarising filters work in pairs to reduce the glare from external light
sources. External light passes through the filters twice, once on its way in,
the second time as it is reflected back. The ambient light becomes circularly
polarised on its way in, and much of it is blocked as it makes its exit. The
light from the screen, however, only passes

this because they excel in the 4 most important areas
directly relevant to all of us. Performance, Reliability, Compatibility, and
Value! PERFORMANCE! From the Laser XT /3 to the Laser 386 series computers, the
performance of all Laser computers and configurations is at the forefront of
technology. RELIABILITY! Unsurpassed reliability by one of the world's largest
PC manufacturer, together with first class back up. COMPATIBILITY! Compatible
with the world's most popular standards. VALUE! For many, exceptional performance,
reliability, and compatibility would suffice. However, Laser computers also
offer exceptional value. In fact, Laser computers are amongst the most
competitive priced computers on the market! Perhaps a little surprising for

f you need a PC that features state-ofthe-art performance,
and unbeatable reliability, you need a Mitac PC. At Mitac, we take reliability
seriously. That's why we inflict every PC we produce to 20 individual 'torture
tests'. As a result Mitac Motherboards are so perfectly assembled, and so
reliable, eve single one is given a spray of purified water, dried and then
retested to ensure they work even after a drenching! But reliability isn't our
only forte. Performance is equally impressive. Mitac PC's are amongst the
fastest, most powerful on the market bar none. You can choose a Mitac with
industry standard AT specifications or move into power-user specification
levels with the latest 'micro-channel architecture' or 25MHz processors for
multi-tasking.
I
Mitac's compact 'small footprint' exterior comes with
3.5" and 5.25" floppies as standard, and supports OS/2, MS DOS,
XENIX, UNIX, and other major operating or networking systems. High resolution
enhanced VGA+ (800 x 600) colour graphics is standard on most models, making
Mitac PC's perfect for CAD and DTP applications. And best of all, Mitac's
superior performance and reliability comes for significantly less than the
equivalent IBM, Compaq or NEC's. Up to 40% less! But don't take our word for
it. You be the judge! Call (008) 331 715 today and ask how you can have a Mitac
Corporate Engine on your desk to try free for up to a whole month! Go on. Call
(008) 331 715 now!

Glossary
Bus: The bus transfers data between the CPU and other
computer components. A 16-bit bus can carry twice as much data as an 8-bit bus.
Each different Configuration: peripheral requires its own set of signals to run
correctly. The system must be configured to provide these. Setting up a system
may require setting switches or storing information in ROM. Some devices can be
set up by running configuration software each time the machine is booted.
Coprocessor: The CPU is a general purpose information manipulator. Since many
applications require large numbers of calculations to be performed, a
mathematics or numeric coprocessor designed specifically for the purpose may be
inserted to assist. CPU: See Processor. CPU speed: See Speed. Diskettes:
Standard disk formats for IBM and compatibles are 135mm at 360k and l .2Mbyte,
or 90mm at 720k and l .44Mbyte. The Macintosh formats diskettes at 800k. Most
modern applications require a hard disk simply because diskette formats do not
provide enough room to store the data and application. Expanded memory: Extra
memory is known as expanded if it can be used by MS-DOS software, which is
traditionally limited to 640k. Expansion slots: Many PCs have no expansion
slots at all, while some have a proprietary slot for a modem or other card.
Some manufacturers provide an expansion chassis to allow add-in cards to be
used with the PC. Hz: The unit Hertz translates as the number of actions each
second. In a computer it refers to the number of instructions that are
performed each second. The standard Keys/keyboard: QWERTY keyboard has about 48
alphanumeric and lO controlling keys. The function keys add a further 10, while
a numeric keypad brings this to 80 or 90. The separation of the numeric keypad
and cursor control keys gives the now standard l 00-odd keys found on most
computers. On many laptops, the number of keys is reduced by doubling the use
of some alpha keys for use as a numeric keypad. Memory: The memory of a
computer is a temporary store of information. If the computer is turned off the
contents of memory are lost. Permanent storage
of memory is provided by disks and diskettes. See also RAM.
Monitor size: The monitor size is measured diagonally across the screen in
millimetres. Monitor type: The major requirement of a monitor is that it is
easy to see. For desktop computers the type of screen surface is almost as
important as the degree of resolution displayed. In portables, power
consumption is a major consideration. LCD screens are the most power efficient
displays but are often difficult to see - backlighting can help this. Gas plasma
is also popular but more power-hungry. Motherboard: Surrounding the CPU is the
system's working memory or RAM, chips holding the BIOS and the electronics to
drive the keyboard and screen. All of this is usually on one printed circuit
board known as the motherboard. Other devices are plugged into the computer
through a bus (data path) that is provided specifically for that purpose. MTBF:
The mean time between failures is a calculated figure indicating the
reliability of the machine. It is given as the number of hours that a machine
can be expected to be powered on before a failure occurs. Processor: The CPU
(central processing unit) largely determines the operating systems and
peripherals that can be attached. It also influences the software that can be run
on the PC. Accordingly, we have divided this chapter largely by the processors
that run each computer. RAM: While the term RAM actually stands for random
access memory, it is now synonymous with memory in general. Memory is the
working storage of the computer. ROM: A portion of read only memory is devoted
to storing the basic input output system. This BIOS may contain a setup program
and configuration information for the whole machine. Setup: See configuration.
Speed: The speed of the CPU controls the overall performance of the computer.
As most information goes through the CPU its speed sets the pace for the rest
of the machine. Most other peripherals are slower than the CPU and consequently
slow it down. Standard RAM: This is the amount of RAM that comes standard. See
RAM. Weight: The weight of a laptop is a critical consideration for many users.

<<PAGE BREAK>>Printers, output devices
If your printer is one of the most valuable components of
your computer system · it (and probably is), you need to ensure its optimum
use. The BIT PEP family of Printer Enhancement Products gives you more
flexible, expandable and cost-effective printing power than you could possibly
have dreamed.
e All the devices can be aisy-chain conected,_ req ... iring
less cabling and resulting in a neater installation. e Because PEPs use twisted
pair cabling, thy offer e e e e e
printing requirements. No PEPs ever become redundant.
Video and film are becoming increasingly common mediums for
communication. The computer-buying public is now much more visually aware.
In I 987, the first issue of the Buyers' Guide to Hardware
listed a significant number of daisywheel printers in this section. We noted at
the time that they were facing stiff competition from the laser printer, which
was then beginning to make widespread use of the PostScript page description
language. This year, the daisywheels have been excluded from the Buyers' Guide
to Hardware. A number of the big manufacturers still produce them, however,
most saw fit not to submit entries for listing this year. The laser printer
reigns supreme and not surprisingly. A $5000 desktop machme is capable of
producing output that was the realm of the professional typesetter a few years
ago. Bureaux can produce letterheads or lay out newsletters for a fraction of
last decade's prices and desktop publishing is a reality. Not that this has
diminished the usefuless of dot matrix printers. The resolutions that these
devices are capable of have continually increased, and for as littie as $500
you can buy a machine that will print draft text at around a line per second
and produce passable documents from desktop publishing packages. In addition,
48-pin printers are also appearing, offering higher-quality text.
e Each member of the BIT-PEP family_ is a single f_uncion e
device that you can mix and match in any combination to
create the printer network perfect for your requirements. You can add (or
subtract) PEP devices accordlnq to your needs, adapting them immediately to
changes m your
considerable savings over the parallel cabling costs of
other systems. PEPs can service up to 30 computers over 300 metres apart, and
over one, two or more floors. Our remote device system facilitates remote
warehouse printing capability. PEPs are fast and easy to install; most of the
equipment can be user-installed. PEPs are Australian-designed, with full
maintenance and support facilities. Peps are covered by a 12 month warranty.
The Pep Family
PEPswitch switches between printers from your keyboard with
software commands. PEPbuffer has a capacity of 256Kb to speed operations by
buffering your printer data intelligently, so you get more use out of your PC.
PEPmegabuffer buffers from 256Kb to 2Mb of printer data . automatically
PEPsharer automatically shares one or more printers between up to four users.
PEPchex, the parallel channel extender which can drive your printer from up to
300 metres away from your PC. PEPnet, the single cable printer sharer system
that allows you to share one or more printers between up to 30 PCs over 300
metres. PEPcon SP and PfPeon PS are the PEP converters between serial and
parallel printers.

Glossary
Automatic advance: If a film recorder can automatically
advance the film under the control of software a series of images may be
recorded without operator intervention. Addressable resolution: Many graphics
packages can calculate drawn images to the maximum resolution of the output
device. Film recorder resolutions are often well beyond the capabilities of the
best monitors. Bidirectional printing: The printer prints from right to left as
well as left to right. saving time by doing so. Buffer size: A buffer stores
data about to be printed in the printer's memory. thus freeing the computer's
memory to heed commands. Most buffers are small. but can be expanded by adding
memory cards or software and hardware buffers. Colour: Some near letter quality
printers are available with multicoloured ribbons and built-in control codes
that give users the option to print in many colours. Some printers are capable
of colour printing but come standard as monochrome. Diablo 630: One of the
standard printers which nearly all software can send data to. Diagonal screen
size: Essentially. a monitor term. This appears in this chapter because
internally film recorders consist of a high resolution CRT. lenses and film
mechanism. The larger the CRT the higher the possible resolution. Dots per
character: The more dots available to make up a character. the sharper it will
be. Downloadable fonts: To enable printers to print the largest variety of font
types extra fonts may be loaded into the printer from a diskette. Emulation:
Most software packages support a limited number of printers. Therefore. some
printers emulate widely used printer brands which are likely to be supported by
most software and hardware products. (See also HPLJ and Proprinter. Engine:
Inside a laser printer. the device which tranlates data from the computer to
electrostatic output for the print drum is known as the engine. A number of
standard engines are used by most manufacturers. Dimensions: The external
physical size of the film recorder unit. Expansion board: Like many output
devices. a controller card is required to run some film recorders.

File formats: Output devices can accept information in a
limited range of formats. The formats acceptable to a printer determine what
software applications can be used to design images. Font styles: The various
typefaces available. Different fonts are available through ROM (read only
memory) cartridges or downloadable fonts. HPLJ: The Hewlett-Packard LaserJet
was the first commercially available laser printer. and consequently can be
written to by a large variety of software applications. Any output device
emulating the HP LaserJet can be used by that same plethora of packages. Image file
size: Because the image needs to be stored on the film recorder to be
displayed. there is an upper limit to the size of the file recording its
details. Paperfeed: Different methods of feeding paper into printers are
appropriate for different situations. Pages per minute: Because laser printers
produce a page of text at a time their speed is measured in pages per minute.
The time is representative of a page of standard text characters. PostScript:
Widely accepted in the industry as a standard means of producing graphics.
PostScript is a page description language which describes every object to be
drawn in a high level language. Printhead life: The printhead moves across the
page. thrusting the appropriate pins into the ribbon at each point. Its
lifetime is rated in number of strikes per pin. or number of characters.
Proprinter: The IBM Proprinter is another widely emulated printer that many
software packages support. (See Emulation). Ports: Some film recorders use the
serial port on the computer. while others the parallel. Some use either. Self
loading: Some film recorders are able to load the film automatically.
Resolution: Graphics resolution is measured by the maximum number of dots
printed per inch. horizontal by vertical. The more dots per inch the clearer
the image. Speed: The maximum number of characters that may be printed every
second. In some technologies. such as dot matrix. optional slower speeds are
provided for quality printing (ie. NLQ). Some thermal printer speeds are
measured by the number of seconds it takes to produce one page.

Your choice of monitor will be largely dependent on what you
want to use it for. For the majority of users the average mono screen is quite
suitable. It has been surprisingly resilient and only surpassed by particular
screens designed for a specific purpose. There have, of course, been vast
improvements in the range of colours and number of pixels the average colour
monitor can display. Consequently, almost video quality graphics have become
part and parcel of owning a PC. Most of us, however, do not use the PC ·······
for watching moving pictures. Colour might make your PC a more pleasant desktop
companion but it will do very little for your word processing, spreadsheets,
data entry or monochrome layout work This will change radically if PC output
becomes compatible with the various video standards (PAL and NTSC). It is
interesting to note that there are more video compatible devices in this
chapter than ever before. It rs also worth noting that the high resolution
monitors section includes a far greater proportion of monochrome screens. We

Glossary
Persistance: Low, medium or high persistance phosphor
screens are avai 1able. High persistance phosphor glows for a longer time.
Monitors that use lower vertical scan rates (interlaced monitors, for example)
need to use higher persistance phosphors so that the image does not decay
between refreshes. However, on high persistance phosphors moving images tend to
blur on the screen. Pixel depth: The number of colours that may be displayed
depends on the amount of information that can be stored for each image. Every
extra bit of information that can be kept for each dot doubles the number of
colours that can be displayed. The pixel depth refers to the number of bits
assigned to each dot (screen location). Reverse video: Paper-white screens
reverse the traditional white text on a black background to emulate black
writing on a white page. A switch is provided for applications that use a
normal screen in reverse mode so that items are not displayed the wrong way
round. Screen type: The type of screen can affect the users' eyes. Glare is an
important factor, as is the shape of the screen. Flat screens are becoming more
popular, although they are initially disconcerting to users familiar with curved
screens as they appear to be sunken rather than flat. Size (mm): The size of
the screen diagonally in millimetres. A4 screens usually measure 210 by 280mm.
This results in a diagonal measurement of 350mm. Size controls: Monitors which
support different graphics standards may need to adjust to the size of the
working area for comfortable viewing. Some monitors have electronics which
perform this adjustment automatically. Screens Special software/cards: which
use different resolutions will need additional software or hardware to operate
with the Macintosh. We have tried to indicate whether these need to be
purchased separately. Standards: If a monitor is capable of being driven by a
variety of graphics cards or boards, the standards supported are listed. Vertical
frequency: The vertical scan frequency determines the rate at which the entire
picture is redrawn on-screen. It varies less than the horizontal scan frequency
as it is more closely related to the number of vertical positions on the
screen.

regarding utilities and file management packages.
Colour: The Apple Macintosh II supports 256 colour graphics,
and the various IBM standards support from 16 to 256. Many monitors use a grey
scale rather than colours. Curved or flat screens: Flat screens are becoming
more common. The idea is that working from a flat object is like working on
paper and is therefore easier to see. Display size: The display area is the
area of the screen that may actually be used for presenting output. This may
vary depending on the type of graphics adaptor used to drive the screen. Dot
pitch: The dot pitch is the distance between the dots on the screen in
millimetres. The more dots packed onto the screen, the finer the graphics that
can be drawn. Footprint: The area taken by the monitor on a desk will generally
be smaller than the desktop computer to which it is attached. Now that many
computers are available in tower configurations the monitor's footprint is more
important. Grey scales & no of shades: Black and white images are greatly
enhanced if a monitor can display shades of grey. Colour graphics programs can
also be used, with different shades being used to represent different colours.
Horizontal frequency: The frequency with which the electron beam scans across
the screen determines the number of pixels that can be placed across it. Each
graphics standard uses a distinct scanning frequency. Maximum resolution/dot
pitch: Most monitors will support the standard Macintosh dot pitch of 72 dots
per inch (0.35mm per dot). This results in 600 by 800 dots on an A4 screen.
Smaller dots (that is, higher dot pitches) give a finer picture or a higher
resolution, but will require special cards to drive the monitor. To display the
extra pixels used to fill the larger area of the screen, special software drivers
may be needed for the software. Screens which display even larger areas (for
example, two A4 pages), may use a combination of higher dot pitches and larger
screen area to display the large area at slightly less than its printed size.
Multiscan: Multisynchronous monitors are capable of supporting a range of
graphics drivers (standards) and generally have a range of scanning
frequencies.

Mass storage devices
One of the oddities of the electronic era is that so many of
our resources are invisible. A century ago the forefront of technology gleamed
with brass and bristled with levers.
Until well into half of this century telephone exchanges
physically connected callers via a formidable array of brass-ended cables, and
ticker tape parades made use of the physical representation of the oodles of
information stored and exchanged along Wall Street. That, of course, is
different now. Modem information centres are clean and sterile rooms that house
humming white boxes. It is not necessarily less romantic but it is certainly
more abstract. It is also significant because it means that the commodities we
deal in are becoming more invisible. Storage devices are based on a range of
media, and this chapter deals with each medium appropriately. The range of optical
devices have been collected into one section, but options available should
settle down over the next few years into the high-density read-only storage
systems and the medium-density read-write storage devices. Another development
concerns removable on-line storage devices - that is, the familiar diskette or
floppy drive. The volume of information that users are handling has grown to
such an extent today that removable hard drives and read-write optical disks
are being used in the diskette's place. Mainframe users migrating to the PC
will feel at home loading and unloading these volumes of data.

Input devices
The keyboard is still king, but mice, scanners and
digitisers are jumping aboard.
Have you ever lost your temper with a PC and thumped the
keyboard or slammed down the mouse? It is probably fairly natural to treat
devices that we use with our hands to physical outbursts, but what is odd, or
perhaps unfortunate, is that the PC 'doesn't feel a thing'. One reason we feel
frustration is that input devices.together with the software interface, are
increasingly intuitive to use. One might have wept over a pile of punch cards
but, like a diskette, it is too far removed from the scene of the crime to
actually take a beating. Since computers are still largely used for processing
text and numerical information, the keyboard and numerical keypad reign
supreme. Graphical interfaces have done a great deal to challenge that notion,
but it will not be until software like Apple's HyperCard for the Mac becomes
well established and that we are thinking in images rather than words that the
majority of us will scoff at character-based commands. Besides the mouse, the
other input devices listed here are special purpose tools for people who have
already made that transition. Artists and draftspeople not only deal with graphical
information, they do so with a high degree of accuracy. Digitising tablets are
their tool. Also featured in this category are scanning devices. These tools
are used primarily for importing text documents. They come with optical
character recognition software that recognises a wide range of typefaces and
converts text into ASCII for word processing. A few barcode readers are listed
for those who have large volumes of items to keep track of, and most
interesting of all are the voice recognition systems. These products are quite
limited in their vocabulary and have to be massaged before it they are usable.
Despite this, they are the only alternative for some computer users. The
technology will undoubtedly continue to develop.

Handheld: Handheld scanners are quite useful for reading
small amounts of text and small images. They tend to be a little limited in the
range of fonts that they can recognise. Icon: When using a pointing device to
pass information on to a computer, it is useful to have a number of
instructions coded behind symbols. This avoids having to return to the keybaord
to enter instructions, such as changing colours or brush type when creating
graphic images. Interface: Interface is loosely used to mean the standard
connector used to plug a connecting cable into. The most common means of
connecting input devices to a microcomputer is through an RS-232 serial port.
Most of the Apple-compatible products use the Apple Desktop Bus connector. Max
scan width: The maximum width (in mm) of the scanned area. Menu generator:
Since mice are ideally suited for use with point and menus, select
menu-generating software is often one of the software packages supplied. NTSC:
The National Television System Committee of the United States sets the standard
for this television signal scheme. Unkindly called the Never The Same Colour
standard, it is generally accepted that it is not as good as the European PAL
standard, which has been adopted in Australia. Naturally, a lot of software is
from the US and supports NTSC signals. OCR software: Optical character
recognition software allows the graphics image of a text file to be converted
into text. This is useful for reading the file into word processing and other
text-based packages. Generally, OCR software produces ASCII text. PAL: The
Australian and European colour for scheme signalling television, enabling input
devices to read television signals or write to home video devices. See also
NTSC. Resolution: Though used in slightly different ways for each type of input
device, resolution generally means the number of dots per inch recorded for
conversion into digital information. Scanner: Scanners convert an image into
digital signals that can be stored on a computer. Generally, they consist of
some sort of camera that reads the image line by line. Scanner type: The type
of scanner determines the objects which can be scanned.
Glossary
Buttons: The number of buttons on a mouse may be important
for some applications which require complex commands to be generated from the
mouse. Most applications use only one. Capture: Taking a picture of an image
through a video medium is known as capturing the image. Creep: See Drift. Desk
area: This is usually given as the size of the mouse pad supplied with the
mouse. It will depend on the user how much room s/he likes to have around
her/his working area. Digitise: To convert an image or other 'real' information
into digital signals for storing in a computer system. Digitisers in this
chapter are assumed to be synonomous with digitising tablets. A digitising
tablet is designed for graphics or drafting work. It takes the place of a mouse
and has the advantage that it is very accurate and records an absolute position
of the mouse rather than a record of mouse movement. See also Scanner, Drift.
Dither: Dithering is a function performed by some graphics hardware and
software. It makes allowances for the digital nature of computer graphics and
softens the edges of images that may appear too ragged. Drift: Because a mouse
used on a desktop or mouse pad records movement rather than absolute position,
any slight difference in its movement in opposite directions will cause the
position recorded by the cursor on-screen to drift as it is used. convert To
Electromechanical: movement into electronic signals, many pointing devices use
a ball or set of wheels that generate electrical current as they move.
Electromagnetic: To register the absolute position of a pointing device, many
digitising tablets contain a grid of wires to sense the position of the mouse
electromagnetically. Some Electro-optical: pomtmg devices, such as light pens
and barcode readers, use a light sensitive element to transfer optical signals
into electronic. Emulation: This term is used in the mouse table to
specifically mean the other mice that the product can emulate. File format: The
file produced by a scanner is a graphics image of the page that has been input.
If it is stored in one of the standard graphics formats it can be used by
appropriate software.

Add-in cards
The bewildering array of cables plugged into the back of a
computer are attached to an equally diverse set of electronic circuits.
Today's basic microcomputer is configured with a keyboard, a
monochrome screen capable of displaying text and some graphics, a port for
connecting a printer, and perhaps a disk drive. However, because of the open
architecture sported by these machines, a wide variety of peripherals can
enhance this standard fare. Quite different devices can be attached, and each
one requires its own circuitry. In this chapter, add-in boards are divided into
their major functional areas. Still finding a niche market are the
multifunction add-in boards. There is less call for this type of low-level
general purpose device these days though, as far more functions are built onto
today's average motherboard. The demand for memory expansion boards is much
greater. Many Macintosh programs need 2Mbytes of memory and, in the MS-DOS
world, expanded memory breaks the 640k limit. Similarly, the demand for higher
resolution graphics by those using CAD/CAM and DTP applications has opened up
the market for a wide spectrum of circuit cards that will drive sophisticated
screens. Also in this section are boards for processing video signals, to
graphics subsystems that have enough circuitry to perform a range of graphics
functions including animation - without calling on the computer's processor.
Other cards provide extra processing power - and for a range of reasons.
Accelerator cards allow users to upgrade their computer. Also in the
CPU/Accelerator section are cards that provide a processor for other reasons.
In some cases it is to provide compatibility with another range of computers;
in others it is a complete computer on a circuit board to be mounted into a box
or frame, with a bus for connection to other circuit cards. There are also a
range of cards for system developers and those who wish to connect other
electronic equipment to the computer. Midi interfaces for musicians, analogue
to digital convertors and vice/versa for the electronic and electrical
engineers can be found here.

or other software that is outside the control of the operating system. Full
length: A card which is the same length as the interior of the PC box. Graphics
standards: When the original IBM PC was introduced it had text capabilities. A
monochrome display adaptor (MDA) allowed pixel by pixel addressing of the
screen but faced competition from a card by Hercules which had higher
resolution and a compatible colour model. The IBM Colour Graphics Adaptor (CGA)
was supported by most software developers but did not have sufficient reolution
for most user requirements. To overcome this, IBM has released successive
adaptors. The Extended Graphics Adaptor (EGA) was widely accepted and is still
considered sufficient for everyday use. All IBM PS/2equipment is now shipped
with the Video Graphics Array (VGA), which gives 256 colours and resolutions
approaching that of video. Far from being standardised there are about eight
types of VGA cards currently available offering different combinations of
colours and resolutions. Maximum memory: A memory expansion board is capable of
holding a finite amount of memory. In the case of a graphics adaptor the memory
onboard is used to store an image of the current screen display. Short card: A
card that does not occupy the full depth of the PC box. SIMM: Single In-line
Memory Module. These modules are a number of memory chips in a single package.
VGA: Video Graphics Array. See Graphics standard. Wait states: As some memory
is slow compared to the computer's processor, the processor may be forced to
wait a clock cycle or two while the contents of a memory location are returned.

Glossary
Board: A circuit board which can be mounted in a computer.
Also called a card because it is narrow and can be slipped into a machine.
Chip: A chip is a circuit component that may contain millions of transistors
and other individual circuit elements. Chip size: On memory expansion boards
the individual memory chips are capable of storing a certain amount of data.
Some boards are capable of holding two different types of chips at the same
time. CGA: Colour Graphics Adaptor. See Graphics standard. Contiguous: Any set
of locations which are logically next to each other and have successive
addresses are said to be contiguous. The term is mainly used for memory and
storage locations. EGA: Extended Graphics Array. See Graphics standard.
Expanded memory: On computers using Intel processors and the MSDOS operating
system the software faces a limit of 640k. Expanded memory is a term used
todescribeextra memory handled in l 6k pages by a special device driver. It is
treated by DOS as another device. Many manufacturers' boards may be configured
as extended or expanded memory or as a combination of both. Expanded Memory
Specification: EMS has been developed to enable software developers to use
volumes of memory larger than 640k on machines running MS-DOS. The standard currently
adopted by most board software and manufacturers developers is known as the LIM
EMS 4.0. Extended memory: This is term used for memory on MS-DOS systems above
the 640k limit imposed by MSDOS. It is often used by disk caching

heirachy. They package the information being transmitted so
that the connected computers will treat it as their own. Emulation packages
simply behave as if they were a terminal of a particular make. Bridges actually
translate for a number of different types of devices. Because communications is
a signalling process many devices perform amplifying functions. Repeaters and
other signal processors are listed in the last sections of the chapter.
Facsimile and communications with other media are listed separately.

In all devices listed in this chapter, the infonnation
begins and ends its life as a digital electronic signal- in many cases it is
exactly the same before and after transmission. The modem is the most common
device operating at this level. It converts digital information appearing at
the computer's port and converts it into an analogue signal for transference
over the telephone line. When a number of connections are made between any two
devices, it is possible to carry the signals for each connection over the one
wire by using multiplexers at each end. Other products in this section convert
and manage the traffic in information. In the case of networks all processors
do an equal amount of management. In multi-user situations there is a heirachy.

PEPsharer, the Automatic Printer Sharer, automatically
connects up to four parallel printer channels to a printer, on demand. No
manual switching is needed. The four input channels could be from four
computers or from a mixture of computers and any other PEP. The input channels
are polled sequentially until data is found on one channel. This active channel
is then switched to the printer (or output channel), and the other channels are
locked out. After data transfer has ceased for a period of·time, sequential
polling recommences. PEPsharer has no operational controls or commands as
everything is automatic. The function performed by PEPsharer can also be
fulfilled by PEPnet but PEPsharer provides a lower cost solution when the
computers are close to the printer to be shared.

Glossary
Async/sync: Data is either sent synchronous! y, which means
that the receiving device must keep time with the sending device, or
_asynchronously, where the beginning and end of each parcel of data is marked,
eliminating the timing controls. · Bandwidth: The amount of data that can be
sent each second ultimately depends on the bandwidth of the communications
device. In a modem, the baud rate is related to the bandwidth. In a network,
the type of cable will determine the maximum bandwidth. In a multiplexer, the
maximum trunk speed will depend directly on the bandwidth. Bell: The Bell
telephone company has defined a number of different standards defining the
various parameters for connection to its devices. See also CCITT and Protocols.
Callback: See Data security. CCITT: The Consultative Committee for
International Telephone & Telegraph. A body that writes documents defining
standards for the transmission of data. See also Protocols. Channels: This term
is used with connection ports. It is generally synonymous with the number of
connections. The number of communication channels a multiplexer can handle
generally ranges from four to 256. Connection type: The type of connections
used to physically connect a cable to a device. For example, the RJ-II plug is
a standard telephone line plug. This will influence the range of devices that
can be attached. Data security: It is desirable to provide some form of data
security when computers are connected. This is achieved by encrypting the data
as it is sent or by requesting the calling modem to supply its phone number and
calling it back. Dimensions: The physical size of the modem may be critical for
internal modems which are required to fit inside a machine. Direct connect:
Many connections require a modem or similar device to send the signal down the
connecting line. Dynamic re-routing: In a busy comms environment channels may
need to be rerouted if lines are noisy or go down. This is only possible if
there are multiple routes between connections. Emulation: Used in this chapter
to specifically mean a package which allows a microcomputer to appear to a host
to which it is connected as one of its own peripherals. Two common families of
peripherals are the DEC VT Series ofter-
minals and the IBM 3270 range of devices. Encryption: See
Data security. Error correction: At high speeds the probability of transmitted
data being corrupted increases. A number of standards have been developed for
dealing with this. The Micro Network Protocol and LAP Series are currently
competing vigorously for acceptance as a standard form of error connection in
modems. Hayes compatibility: The Hayes microcomputer company developed a set of
modem control codes early in the piece which have been widely adopted by other
modem manufacturers. Host: When computers are connected it is usually required
that one be assigned the task of performing management functions. This is
called the host. Internal: Internal modems are difficult to lend to colleagues.
Monitoring/logging software: Many networks, multiplexers and other devices
shared by a number of users have software that can perform traffic management
tasks. Network: A system of computers connected together so that they can share
information and resources. Each PC on a network performs its own processing. Devices
assigned the task of managing a resource are known as servers. Physical
connection: See Connection type. Protocols: Two major sets of standards exist
for transmission of data via modems. They mainly concern the rate at which data
is transmitted. CCITT standards are given V numbers (eg, V22) while Bell
standards are denoted by Bell. Software included: Some modem manufacturers
include communications software with their modems so that firsttime purchasers
can use them immediately without extra expense. Sync/async: In synchronous mode
the receiving modems decode data by using a transmitted timing signal. In
asynchronous mode a code accompanies transmitted data, alerting the receiver
that data is arriving. Time division/statistical: Multiplexers divide the trunk
line into portions providing a permanent link for each port. Statistical MUXes
allow the system to vary the portion of the bandwidth assigned to each port.
The same function can switch ports between circuits. Transmission standards:
See Protocol. V22: See Protocol Voice/data: Voice and data have different Some
requirements. communications decices have facilities for both.

Accessories and · services
Microcomputers use an array of consumables and, fear the
word, may require repairs. This chapter lists the companies that provide these
services. It also contains the indices.
Purchasing computer hardware is half the battle. The other
half is keeping it going. Printer ribbons and toner, continuous paper,
preprinted stationery an industry flourishes collecting these on-going running
costs. There are two tables in this chapter. The first lists those companies
that requested a listing for their range of accessories. Stationery figures
largely in this table as it is one the most consumable of consumables.
Furniture sellers and builders and those companies supplying storage media are
also listed. The second concerns companies that provide services to computer owners:
those that install computer systems. supply cables or networking or other
connections. Repair and maintenance companies either work on their own premises
(repair), your premises (on-site maintenance), or agree to perform all your
repair work for an agreed fee (contract). The other services covered by this
table are the rental of computer equipment, the building of computer rooms and
the provision of secure archiving of storage media or documents. Many companies
have chosen to give a full account of their activities by advertising in the
MarketPlace section of this chapter. We envisage that this will become a well
recognised forum for computer dealers and service providers. The major portion
of this chapter is occupied by the indices. The product index is an alphabetic
listing of the products that appear throughout this guide. The supplier index
is larger and gives address details for those companies that have products
listed here along with a company statement, a list of the types of products
they have listed and the manufacturers whose products they distribute. Finally,
the index of advertisers is the who's who in PC hardware for 1989.
