By now, you’ve probably discovered the newest national pastime – trying to strike a better balance between the work you do and the life you lead.
 
To help you get there, we’ve created the IBM PS/1. It’s designed to let you work wherever your life is. The PS/1 runs all popular business software.  Because it’s from IBM, the PS/1 is probably compatible with your office computer. And it’s also compatible with people. It’s amazingly easy to set up and use. It expands to meet all your growing needs. And starting at $999,* the PS/1 is affordable, especially with the priceless service and support of IBM.
 
After all, if we can admit there’s life outside the office, maybe it’s time you did.

Imagine working in a place where everyone treats you like family. 
 
Like many people, you may have discovered that your favorite place to do business is right in your own backyard.  The IBM PS/1 is perfect for you. It runs all the software small businesses need and then some. The PS/1 is expandable, so it can grow as your business grows, even outside your home. And because it’s from IBM, it’s compatible with most business computers.
 
But the PS/1 fits into your life, too. It’s remarkably easy to set up and use. Prices start as low as $999*. Best of all, it comes with the service and support you can expect only from IBM. 
 
Not to mention the support you’ll get from the people around you.

PS/1. Because you don’t just have a job. You have a life. 
When you own a business, it shouldn't own you. 
 
It’s a trade-off. You thought being the boss would mean more freedom. Now the company’s your own, but your time isn’t.
 
The IBM PS/1 is designed to help you change that. It comes with software for word processing, spreadsheets and database management.  And it runs other popular business software for payroll, inventory, accounting and more. 
 
The PS/1 is expandable, to grow with your business. And it’ll grow on you, when you see how easy it is to set up and use. Not to mention prices that start at $999.* Best of all, it comes with the service and support you can expect only from IBM.  So you’ll have time to concentrate on more important things.  For a store near you, call 1 800 IBM -3377.
 
PS/1. Because you don’t just have a job. You have a life. 
The first computer to understand you don’t just have a job.     You have a life.
 
Something fundamental has changed in America. Now it’s not just the living you make, it’s the life you make. You want to enjoy the things you’re supposedly working for. Your  family. Your home. Yourself.
 
At IBM, we know balancing your job with the rest of your life isn’t easy. That’s why we created the IBM PS/1. A line of computers specially designed to help you do office work at home or run a small business, so you can spend more time with the people you care about most. And if those people happen to include kids, the PS/1 can help with their homework as easily as yours.
 
We also know you’d like to improve the quality of your life without compromising on the quality of your computer. So while our new PS/1s are priced to compete with the most affordable computers around, we give you a lot of things no one else can. Like true IBM compatibility. More power than the average office computer, with room to expand. Built-in software and features – including Windows and OS/2 – and the ability  to run other popular business and educational software. Not to mention IBM reliability, support and service – not just lip service. And no computer’s easier to set up and use.
 
It may take more than a perfectly balanced computer for you to find that perfect balance in your life. But who knows? You may find you do your best work with someone looking over your shoulder.
