The Multinational system was developed at a time when the power of PCs was developing fast so that they began by standardising on a 386 chip for the client machines (00203). The increase in power was such that they did not have to use Unix for the server in phase I as planned (00273) but they did have power problems running graphical applications on the client even though by this stage they were using 486 chips (00272). One of the outcomes of the project was that it introduced the concept of a PC network infrastructure into X offices (00115).
