Many of Roberts' remedies were routine: he centralized administrative control, for example, and lopped off unprofitable product lines. Yet, despite Ampex' shortage of cash, Roberts also ordered a lavish step-up in research and development spending. R. & D. engineers and scientists were set to work on so many new projects that snickering critics took to calling Ampex "the model shop...
