Hey all...
	Well, gee whiz, I didn't think that SUNY had THAT many people beaton
computer prices! But seriously, I guess the fact is that we here are lucky. 
Our program was designed to be a non-profit syste, so we only charge what we
have to to pay our own way.  Maybe that's not true of your local store.   Many
campuses do run them on a non-profit basis, but it may cost them more to do
business in any given location/  Take Berekely, it just costs more out there,
but many of their prices are very close to our, and some less, so I take this
to mean that they are non-profit.
	As for SE/30 prices, well like most places, we dropped quite a bit on
the 4/80 version, but only $1.00 on the 1/40.
