Abstract
Introducing personal computers, though very worthwhile, poses several problems for managers: the incompatibility of machines, programs, data bases, and procedures as computers are introduced one by one; the presence of amateurs who don''t know what they don''t know; the hidden costs of extra disk storage, printers, and modems; the possibility of purchasing unsuitable equipment; and the ineffective use of computer equipment. Every large company needs a clear, explicit policy for introducing personal computers.
