Get those bloody compiles off the production machines (the big 370's); 2. Get those bloody editor sessions off the production machines; 3. Get those maverick PC users back under control of the MIS/DP manager; 4. Get (some of) the applications tested before the users see them; etc. Seems to me that XT/370's are for folks that have already got 370's, not so much for folks who already have PC's, if you see what I mean.
