	    BBN/Slate(TM) Academic Institution Discount Plan

Bolt  Beranek  and Newman, Inc. is pleased to announce an Academic Institution
Discount Plan for the BBN/Slate(TM) multimedia document communications system.
The  Plan  is  intended  to  foster  the understanding of BBN/Slate within the
academic community.  For this purpose  BBN  is  offering  the  software  at  a
substantially  reduced price of $100 per "active user" copy, to cover the cost
of distribution.

BBN/Slate software helps you  create,  edit,  communicate,  print  and  manage
multimedia  documents.   A BBN/Slate document may contain a number of powerful
media types, including:  Text, Geometric Graphics, Color Images, Scanned Black
&  White Images, Voice, Spreadsheets, Business Charts and Enclosures.  You may
print and file these documents as well as use electronic  mail  and  real-time
document conferencing to share these documents with others.

BBN/Slate  currently runs on five different types of workstations:  Sun 3, Sun
386i, Sun 4/SPARC under the SunView and  X11  window  systems,  the  IBM  RISC
System/6000 and the DEC VAXstation/Ultrix under the DECWindows window system.
