...have indicated my support for Walter Mondale because my experience of working with him in the Carter Administration convinced me that he would make a good president. It would be hypocritical to hide that conclusion. But as a professor. I must feel as free to criticize his positions as I do to offer ideas to anyone, including the current administration.

Like women's fashions, computer buzz words change with the season and tend to hide more than they reveal. Last year's programs were all "user friendly," although many proved painfully difficult to master. This year, software is "integrated," which means that information from one program can sometimes be merged with data from another. Industry watchers are now getting a preview of the pet phrase for 1984.
