I have recently been involved in setting up the computing environment
for a 100+ person department - the Software Engineering Institute of
Carnegie Mellon University.  We have installed over 75 workstations
(mostly MicroVAX-II's running Unix 4.2/4.3) and exist as a department
totally on these system.  We have no "mainframe" or "central"
computer.

I would be interested in knowing of other sites that are doing this
or planning to do something similar.  Our users have a wide variety
of backgrounds.  The general computing facility is used mostly for
mail, bboards, document preparation, etc.  Projects use project
machines that may or may not be connected to the department computing
facility.

Please respond directly to me and I'll repost a summary.  Thanks
                                        J. Ray Scott
