FOREWARD SYSTEMS UPGRADE SECTION This issue of "USEH GHOUP NEWS" contains a special "Systems Upgrade" Section. Inside you will find descriptions of many software and hardware upgrades available to MDP customers. This section is intended to be used as a handy reference for all our ~1DP upgrades. Both software and hardware options are offered for the Tek 8500 Series, and recent price adjust- ments have made many of these option even more attractjve. The advantages of using a "universal" development system, as oppposed to using a "dedicated" development system are well documented. Owners of Tektronix' Software Development Tools enjoy a broad spectrum of modestly-priced system upgrade uptions. In many cases, a modest investment spent to enhance an existing system can mean the difference between a frustrated design team that finishes a project late, and a contented d('sign team that proudly delivers a product on time, and on budget. If you wish to order or if you have further questions, just contact your Tektronix :rvIDP sales representative for more information.
