 This book, published in 1983, surveyed microcomputers sold in the early 1980's.
The original audience for the book was purchasing, technical, and marketing
agents.  Looking back at the book now, 30 years later,
its survey provides a snapshot of microcomputing 
just after the IBM Personal Computer and the Microsoft DOS 
operating systems entered the microcomputing market in 1981.
