When I was in college, my 1/nth of an IBM-370 was partly paid for by music
majors' tuition.  (But some of them got to use PLATO, piano keyboard, orange
screen, and all.)  A personal computer would have been an immense benefit to
most engineering students; it might not have the horsepower for some CS
courses, but the PDP-11 seemed to :~).
