Brazil to Open Computer Market: The Brazilian government said it would open its computer market to imports, ending a controversial policy adopted in 1984 to protect its fledgling computer industry that had prompted U.S. trade retaliation. Under the latest plan, imports of only 30 types of products, mainly in the area of microcomputers, will be prohibited until 1992.
