SLAC as DoE funded laboratory does not ``influence'' university staff as your sentence might imply. I hope the SLAC lawyers didn't read your statement they might be upset. I'm sure you didn't mean the way the sentence could be read, so I'm not flaming you, just want to make things clear. On the other hand, NextStep applications being developped at SLAC has led to the sale of a dozen or two NeXTs at universities and even in Europe. Curiously, I don't think this is the case of the one I know about at Irvine. As long as I'm being so legal, I guess I must add that I don't speak for SLAC, the DoE, or the Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University.
