[comp.edu] What is their best bet?

ender@mtuxo.UUCP (04/13/87)

I would like to solicit some opininons from the net  as  to  what
the  best  bet  for  computational  resources for a consortium of
three departments (IE, Stat, CS) in a  university  is.  They  are
planning  to  run  Operations  Research  and  Statistics oriented
packet programs, and write some of their own. The facilities will
be run basically for graduate research. The total number of users
will probably reach about a hundred,  the maximum number of users
at  one  time  will  probably  be  around  forty.  They need high
floating  point  performance,  but  not   necessarily   excellent
graphics.  They  will  probably be needing a lot of storage. They
have about $150K to spend.

Please mail the responses to me, I will summarize the replies  to
the net.

(Expressed views are mine only, and not necessarily  that  of  my
employer.)
