Organisational context: IT within X-Group

'X-Group has effectively standardised on IBM PS/2s and compatibles, with the general recommendation being that new PCs should have a 386 chip, ie IBM OS/2 55 SX models and above.

There is no such standardisation on the tools and systems running on the PCs, and the choice of PC tools and packages with which to build systems will depend upon what is currently in use in X and elsewhere in X-Group, the strategic direction of PC operating systems, and most importantly the requirements of the new systems.'
