Computer Design Hall of Fame, 1982
	THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON November 12, 1982 I am delighted to extend my heartfelt congratula- tions to the pioneers who have become members of the Computer Industry Hall of Fame. Just as your colleagues and admirers recognized the stellar con- tributions each of you has made to this dynamic industry, your fellow citizens are aware of the benefits that this industry has given our American society. As much as any development in the past several decades, the computer industry embodies America's world leadership in high technology. It has brought us the prosperity of a multi-billion- dollar enterprise where none existed before. It has conveyed the benefits of computers and data processing to our personal lives, to our commerce, and to our national security. And as a shining example of our free enterprise system, it has paved the way for continuing industrial progress. As America faces the challenges of the 1980s, we look to this and other high-technology industries to continue to create new career opportunities for our citizens, to make our lives more productive, and to give us the new tools we need for our national security. The people being honored in this Hall of Fame continue to stimulate innovation through their active industrial leadership. They are a living national resource, appreciated by all Americans, and we are pleased to have this opportunity to salute their accomplishments.
