Abstract
Recent dramatic increases in the cost/performance ratio of computers are beginning to have some impact on the field of optical design. Although the mainstream of optical design still utilizes large computers, production programs that run on minicomputers are now well established, and we have written programs of somewhat limited scope that run on desktop systems.
