Thanks a lot, buddy. If an educational discount is to be offered, it should be available to ALL people being educated, be they at glorious CMU, or at a local community college. Take a look at Apple's MAC policy -- any school that (I think) could promise a large enough audience got on the educational discount plan. And, while the sites you mention probably did produce a lot, I remember that Reed College (Oregon?) flooded the nets with some interesting stuff called "Rascal". Which just goes to show that you don't discriminate and you can win big. -- Dan Green -- ARPA: hsgj%vax2.ccs.cornell.edu@cu-arpa.cs.cornell.edu UUCP: ihnp4!cornell!batcomputer!hsgj BITNET: hsgj@cornella
