HIGH street broker systems specialists Policy Master (tel: 0121-355 3567) have just launched what they hope is an offer their users cannot refuse. Firms holding back on buying or extending personal computer networks because they are reluctant to abandon their earlier investments in dumb terminal technology can now take advantage of a buy-back offer.

Under this scheme Policy Master will give brokers �150 for every terminal they trade in against the purchase of a new 486 or Pentium PC from Policy Master. Although �150 may not seem much, particularly when you consider what dumb terminals cost new five years ago, it is quite an attractive offer considering that today you cannot give them away.
