This edition of Digital This Week (August 1, 1983) primarily focuses on "DECtown," a major upcoming sales symposium and employee/family exhibition being held at the Hynes Auditorium in Boston. The event showcases Digital’s product line through a simulated city environment.
Beyond the event announcement, the document serves as a corporate newsletter covering:
- Company News: The standardization of office communication via the new "Message Router" and the announcement of a new Ethernet device called the "DELNI."
- Professional Development: Announcements for various educational opportunities, including WPI graduate courses, UMass videotape instructional programs, and an internal technical seminar series.
- Employee Resources: Information on internal services, such as drive-in car maintenance, an employee stock ownership plan, and various "Ed Services" training seminars.
- Classifieds & Local Interest: A "Marketplace" section for employee sales, a recap of a local 10K road race in Tewksbury, and scheduling updates for employee clubs.
- Administrative Forms: The final page includes an official ticket order form for employees to register their families for the DECtown event.
