	Our local student chapter would like to publically display the
series 'The Machine that Changed the World'. We don't, however, have a
complete copy of this series on tape. I understand that these tapes are
available from ACM, but for a sizable fee. Is there any way that we could
'borrow' a set, or receive a set for a low student fee? If worst comes
to worst, would anyone loan us a set? 

			   		Thanks in advance,
						Don

According to ACM MEMBERNET, _The_Machine_that_Changed_the_World_ will be
rebroadcast on PBS in the U.S. and Canada beginning March 25.  If you can
wait until then, it is my understanding based on previous postings in this
group that ACM student chapters are allowed to record and play the series
for public viewing.
