Due to extremely depressing budget constraints, we have not been able to do much beyond a single cube (plus access to the wonderful Columbia NeXTstation lab, but disk space for soundfiles is limited there!). However, almost every serious computer music student we have took advantage of the NeXT/B-land sale to purchase old cubes with large disks, and a few have now upgraded to 040 machines. Others have purchased NeXTstations through the school. So we now have a large number of students with better facilities in their dorm rooms than we can offer through the University. The future...?
