Peter:
	We are currently awaiting a university decision to put up the
money for the  CSD display system which is presently planned as an 80
terminal Yale system costing about $240,000 including  connections to
two computers.  We are planning to put it together ourselves buying a
unit from Intel containing somewhat more than the bare memory.

	A   not   quite   up-to-date   version   of   the   plan   is
CSD.PRO[ESS,JMC] in our system, and  the quote we have from  Intel is
described in  INTEL.QUO[1,JBR].  JBR  is Jeff Rubin  formerly of MIT,
and he is doing the system design.   We simply cannot afford the  ISI
system, because we believe in lots of displays,  so we have no choice
but  proceeding as we are.   When the  money comes, we  will take one
last look before we spend it.
