    PUT A MACRO IN YOUR MICRO! (XLPHA M•c10sYSTEms'M A new horizon in micro computing for the business, industrial, education and personal computer user has been accomplished with the introduction of the Alpha Microsystems' advanced total system design. From the beginning the goal has been to produce an integrated system that takes advantage of excellent hardware working with superb software to give the computer owner and operator true computer capability and reliability. The forerunner of such a system was the common bus structure that appeared in the personal computing market and was soon embraced by hundreds of manufacturers. The common bus is the S-100. This allows the integration of computer systems with a choice of components, all using common specifications and design criteria. Alpha Microsystems determined that the idea of implementing their computer system on the S-I00 bus was also the most practical and feasible way to proceed. SYSTEM FEATURES automatic initiation of a series of tasks similar to • 16 bit processor. "batch mode processing" on iarger computers. • Multi-user, multi-tasking, timesharing disk op­ Jobs may initiate other jobs automatically within erating system. a series or they may start up independent jobs in • Disk file management system and utilities. other jobstream.
