- Description: One of the most significant features of this year has been the employment of the four new people by CECS. Having so many new people in influential positions can be potentially dangerous for an organisation such as CECS which is rim along democratic lines. It thus becomes incumbent on the members of CECS to be vigilant against too much of the responsibility for the running of the organisation resting on the shoulders of the employed staff. Members should actively participate in decision-making so that it is they who determine the course of CECS. Each and every member should view themselves as an indespensible part of CECS, and that they share in the responsibility for the successes and failures of the organisation.

- Description: This is a bold statement and a difficult one for people who regard] computers as a tool of the rich. Yes the computer is a tool or the rich. But more and more of these weird little machines are finding their way into our backyards and ghettos, into the backrooms of our community organisations and even into our classrooms. Each of these computers can do what only the rich with million rand typographic equipment could do 10 years ago . Today ordinary people can bring out media of a quality that only highly trained professionals using specialised equipment used to be able to produce. This edition of CECS NEWS is proof of this. Almost the entire newsletter was produced by High School student members of CECS trained on a 5-day camp in June. “Computers For All” is not just an empty slogan but a possible reality. We decided at the camp to devote an entire issue to just this topic: Media on Computers.
