...applying the $475 million restructuring charge. TIME's Philip Elmer-DeWitt reports that Digital's woes do not signify a trend in the industry. "Digital's unhealthiness predates any short-term weaknesses in the PC business," Elmer-DeWitt reports. "The rise of smaller, more powerful microcomputers has reduced the demand for minicomputers.
