Northwest • Section drain. uron approves furter. study... *from gaga I . Hensel! Reeve Harry Klungel asked if a common computer, such as the Commodore 64 would be sufficient - for • .. the :county's Walter Benko, 4 of the; . 'Toronto firm, indicated it wouldn't, because, the "64" means that only 64,000 pieces of information can be placed in that computer. "We're talking ' about a ' muchlarger system" said Benko. The consulting firm has suggested two options for placing a computer system inthe count*. One is to have a central processing, area with a single computer. The other option is to have two smaller computers; one in Goderich and the other in Huronview. Both options would. have a base computer with terminals which are a video screen with, a keyboard. The Woods Gordon study indicates that a computer is needed,, in the finance and administration, road'and Huronview 'depart- ments. A computer for the finance and administration. department, will handle gen- eral ledger,.budgets and financial reporting, accounts payable and the payroll of all county. departments. in its study, Woods, Gordon narrowed down potential computer packages to five companies which deal specifically with the needs of smaller municipalities. The five companies are Quante; of London, which has computer system in Oxford County;' MAI of Kitchener which has a system in Wellington County; 'Computer Solution of Kitchener which has a system in,, Brockville; Adnet of Hamilton has a system in Owen Sound and NCR of Kitchener has a system in Stratford. Ashby said the county would not have to do any of its own, 'programming because necessary programs are already available. The next study .by the Toronto firm will involve visiting the aforementioned' municip- alities and,viewing their computer systems. From there, the consulting firm will assist the county in preparing tendering specifica- tions and evaluating :the proposals sent in, by ,. the . five. companies. . • ' Woods Gordon will also assist in the selection of .which' computer the county will actually purchase and,.help in negotiating purchase terms such as staff training.. The firma' suggests it, will take 18 to 22 weeks before this second study is completed. PrairieHarvest carries 30,000 tons A story in last week's Sentinel stated the Prairie' Harvest, the longest ship ever built at the Collingwood Shipyards, Will carry 300 tonnes 'of grain cargo, when in fact it will carry 30,000 long tons of cargo. The Sentinel apologizes - for ' any inconvenience caused by this error. • ' Enjoy New Years at Kinlough By May Boyle. Visitors with Mr. and Mrs. Bert Nicholson were Mr, and Mrs.' Alex.
