An overview of the data analysis and archiving of astronomical observations is presented. A key factor for a proper analysis of the situation is the average time interval for the obsolescence or renewal of hardware configurations and software tools. The development of interactive data analysis programs and systems over the last 15 years and problems related to portability and adaptability of software are reviewed. The use of workstations designed to be installed and run by individuals rather than by 'computer centers' means that the astronomer must often become the computer manager. A critical review of medium to long term plans is required.
