This IBM mainframe computer which had been running all of the Lab’s administrative applications is on its way out, thanks to server technology.
After a five-year phaseout of the machine, ICSD employees (from left) Joe
Barahona, Stu Loken, George Porter, Carl Eben and Ed Masuoka lent a hand to
help lead the computer workhorse to greener pastures. The machine has been
sold to a Napa firm which provides services to various counties in the state.
The Lab’s old system has been largely replaced by UNIX servers running Oracle
and PeopleSoft applications.
