 HELLO JOHN,
 IN CASE YOU DON'T KNOW, I AM CURRENTLY HEADING
 RAND'S INFORMATION SCIENCES DEPARTMENT.  WE ARE
 SOON TO GET A RESEARCH COMPUTER FOR THE DEPARTMENT.
 I HAVE BEEN TORN BETWEEN BUILDING A VERSION OF THE
 YALE TERMINAL SYSTEM, OR BUYING THE ISI SYSTEM
 FROM SYSTEMS CONCEPTS.  BUT NOW I HEAR THAT
 YOU ARE HAVING A VERSION OF THE YALE SYSTEM
 INSTALLED AT STANFORD.  HAVE YOU SELECTED
 A SUPPLIER.  IF SO, I WOULD BE VERY INTERESTED
 IN DISCUSSING A RAND @PURCHASE WITH HIM.
 ANY DETAILS WILL BE VERY MUCH APPRECIATED.
 
        THANKS FOR ALL...     PETER
 
 P.S. MY ADDRESS HERE IS WEINER@RAND-RCC

 WILKINS AND GINZPARG ARE  BOTH FINISHED TACHIBANA IS BEHIND, WORRIES ABOUT HIS
 INABILITY TO GET IT DONE, AND WANTING TO ABANDON THE SHIP IN FAVOR OF TERRY.
 APARENTLY HE HAS TALKED TO BOTH TERRY AND LES ABOUT THIS ALREADY.  THINK WE
 SHOULD MAKE AN EFFORT TO MEET WITH DEW AND JJ TO DISCUSS THE PROOFS.

 I don't intend to renege on $25K I promised you for Frost.  I figure
 we'll fold it in whenever we next process a proposal  (well before
 June 75)
 
 I don't know enough about viros to respond.  Idea seems reasonable,
 but I need more info.
 
 Theere doesn't seem to be anything  that won't wait until 1 Jan.
 
 Enjoy the island.
 
 Steve

 Jack:
 Sorry i wasn't able to make the computer facilities meeting. Did anything get
 decided at that meting. I essentially concur with your earlier remarks that
 a good PDP-10 (KL) with lots of interactive software would make  an appropriate
 machine for educational needs for computer science department. It could be
 interfaced to the 370 systems for batch submittal.  I have been told that IBM
 San Jose has a'large scale time sharing' project goingfor VS2 release 2, but
 that the software is likely to be along the lines of (gasp) TSO. Frankly this
 isn't very encouraging. See you next quarter.
