Amable R. Aguiluz V, fourth son

object conditions of the national
economy are still not totally
suitable to this modern technology.
The distributors had to find ways of
ensuring acceptance and usage in
order to increase the demand for
computers. The formula was
simple: train programmers for
wider distribution base.
