As you can see from above I attend Montana State University in Bozeman.
NeXT virtually has no influence in Montana what-so-ever.  There is no
retailer or educational dealer in the state.  Does anyone out there have
any suggestions as to what action I could take to purchase a machine on
the educational program?

Also I have a few general questions for those of you who have been closely
following the lastest developements from NeXT Inc.

1.  Is it possible to use a color NeXTstation in a mode which would only use
2 bits per pixel. (Thus greatly improving performance for times when color
is not needed?)  If this is possible what is involved in accomplishing the
bit/pixel change?

2. What is a NeXT campus consultant?  Who do I contact to apply for this
position?  What are the benefits of having this position?  I am very serious
about persuing this.  I really believe that the presence of a consultant in
the Montana University system could really make a difference in Montana.

Thank you for your time,
Troy
