- Scope and Content
- Chuck Johnson of Edmonton, promotion supervisor for Alberta Government Telephones, puts one of AGT’s machines through its paces prior to a five-day communications course being held in Lethbridge. The Datacom is a machine built for small businesses that cannot afford their own data processing equipment. Hooking into regular long distance telephone lines, the Datacom is programmed to a pool computer usually located in a large city. Many Datacoms can be programmed into one computer. The machine is also starting to be used by doctors. At a moment’s notice, a doctor can have case histories and the findings of world medical experts on any known human disorder. The course in Lethbridge was to be attended by 75 invited guests.
