Hi,

	We at the George Washington University (School of Engineering)
have been using Waterloo MacJANET for around three years.  I find the
product ideal for a university environment, and administrative tasks
are greatly simplified.  A nice feature of JANET is that they provide
a means to encrypt and assign quotas to applications.

	The JANET team has always been responsive to suggestions, and
I enjoy dealing with them.

	Our rep is Mike Paola @ (519) 886-3700.
