I have an explorer post and a computer club: 40% of the kiddies in the explorer post have their own microcomputers (w/disks, s/w, etc). The computer club runs 40 kiddies on plato -- 4 CDC 6400 mainframes, 40Mb of swapping MEMORY, 13000Mb of disk. These kids range from 7th to 12th grade. I don't believe Soviet technology comes close to this one particular western standard.
