Testo originale: Introducing the NEC Astra
When you look inside today's small business systems, you tend to find the same components in nearly every one.
The same microprocessors. The same printers. The same diskette and disk drives.
With all that sameness, how do you find one product that's better than the next?
By looking at the brand new NEC Astra.
The Astra is different from other small computers—with features that make it a lot better.
Like our CPU. It’s not a little 8-bit microprocessor we bought from someone.
It's a big 16-bit microprocessor. Our own.
Like disk drives. Our 20-, 40- and 80-megabyte Winchester-type drives have never been seen in the U.S. before.
But they have 10 years of NEC development behind them.
Like languages. We don't give you one nonstandard language.
We give you two standard ones: COBOL and BASIC.
Plus fully developed systems software, utilities, data management and a powerful assembly language.
Like applications packages. The Astra provides ready-to-go systems that cover many major business applications.
Like multi-function power. Astra grows from one to 32 stations, performs concurrent batch and transaction jobs, and operates in local or network mode under many protocols.
And like credibility. The Astra may be a new computer, but its major components have evolved from our experience serving thousands of users over the years.
Find out more about distinctive computers in an age of sameness.
Find out about Astra, NEC's brand new family of unique small computers.
And dealers: call us for information on our attractive Dealer/Agent Support Package.
Computers are distinctive again.
