MAYNARD, Mass. -- December 23, 1992 -- Robert B. Palmer, president

Business Practices. 

    In his new position, Hindle will continue to report to Bob 
Palmer and will focus on customer needs and the corporation's global

    "The Office of Ethics and Business Practices was created to 
ensure that Digital operates well within both the letter and spirit 
of the requirements in each country where we do business," said 
Palmer. "Win's work will assure that the behavior of our employees 
exemplifies the company's core values and the highest standards of 
business ethics," Palmer continued. "In addition, Win will provide 
leadership in our effort to integrate a total quality management 
philosophy in everything we do."

president. In his 30 years with the company, he has held a series of 
management positions, which have included responsibility for 
Marketing, Information Systems, Planning, Business Units,

manager in 1967, and vice president, Corporate Operations in 1978. 
In 1986, he was named senior vice president.

    Hindle holds a bachelor of arts degree in Physics from Amherst 
College and a master of science degree in Industrial Management from 
the Sloan School of Management at the Massachusetts Institute of 
Technology (MIT). Prior to joining Digital, he directed the 
Industrial Liaison Program at MIT.
