Sheriff Dobeck next asked for direction from the. Commission with regard to the purchase of a Data General MV8000, which is recommended by Mr. Hylton to operate the CARE package that will be available to us at no charge.

Sheriff Dobeck believed the cost of the hardware itself for the ATT is about $77,000, and he felt the Data General would be in that range also.
