Kevles, Barbara L.
Journalist and author Barbara Kevles used the same personal computer from1993 through 2006. During those fourteen years she added only a few essential programs such as financial and security software because the restrictions placed by the PC's miniscule 170 megabyte hard drive. Out of necessity, she kept her operating system, monitor, and printer manuals as well as allied materials to operate her computer and fix periodic malfunctions as the radically changing computer world replaced her platform, programs, and eliminated support services. She recorded her user problems with an IBM compatible computer and peripheries in detail in 12 notebooks.
