Subject: VS SURVIVAL

Posted By: Thomas Junker
Date: 7/14/02 at 10:52 p.m.

This thread deals with various issues of VS survival at the close of the Twentieth Century. Until the middle of 2000 I maintained that almost all conversions from the VS to other systems were unnecessary and almost always ill-conceived and badly executed. In the summer of 2000, with yet another round of layoffs in the already-tiny VS group at Getronics (formerly Wang Global, formerly Wang Laboratories) I revised my position, having concluded that VS staffing at Getronics and the installed base in the field had both fallen below the "critical mass" necessary to sustain the VS line.
