The mass market or appliance computer has become a plausible alternative to workstations for software development. While it is easy to use for software development, a different style of development emerges. By being truly personal, the mass market computer provides a focus for all the professional activities of a developer. The primary form of software used on such computers is shrink-wrapped software; this has profound implications on how the software is used and the make-or-buy trade-off takes on an entirely new meaning. This paper describes the advantages of mass market computers. As an example, the paper presents how an environment, consisting of a network of mass market computers, has influenced the development of a novel source management scheme.
