I'm sure some people look at different markups and attribute it to bad
university policy or generic greed. But give the central computer
service organizations a break; they have to live within the funding
model of their particular university. Some have to recover all their
costs, some have to recover nothing, and some only have to recover
costs in sales areas, etc. So I don't think you can conclude anything
from a price survey.
