The in-house computer department

Over fifteen years ago, in some inner recess of some large corporation, a perplexed company official stood pondering before a large corporate organizational chart on his office wall. In his hand he held a small square of paper on which the words "Computer Department" were inscribed. Behold one of the modern frontiersmen of twentieth century business: the first man to try to stick the in-house computer department on the company organizational chart. He probably failed to find a place with which he felt comfortable, thereby becoming the first of many who have failed to resolve this problem.
