When did computers start coming into graphic design at TVS?

TVS was a little behind London, the main reason for this was investment. The first Quantel Paintbox we bought was 120,000! Before we bought it, there was a lot of stone age grumbling (from me included) about the expense but we all used it for a couple of hours and went “Oooh, thats quite interesting!” We did have a couple of Amigas too we had a guy who would use those for stuff for a couple of years before realising they were a load of rubbish and giving up. So we started off with Paintbox, then two years later my brother (whos in the computer business) gave me a computer to run a typesetting package for the PC. It was awful to use but it worked. Then a Mac was bought for the department. Nowadays, we’ve mainly got PCs at Meridian, though there are some Macs. We have two people doing 3DS Max. I tend to use Corel Draw for my design work, which Ive used since almost the first version. Its on Version 11 now! I used it because you couldnt get Adobe Illustrator for the PC nine years or so ag
