Subject: MMX Technology

Dear Conntech:
At Teikyo Post, I am in charge of the library and also two computer labs.  
We are updating and creating two new computer classrooms; hence a major 
investment in computer technology.  The Academic Computing Director and 
myself had specified a Compaq Deskpro 4000 for the two labs.  This caused 
some controversy with other interested parties on campus, who think that 
MMX technology is the way to go.

So - Question: If you were buying in to technology at this point in time 
and wanted stuff to last at least the 3 years that everybody predicts 
(but really know that it will probably have to last 5 years) would you buy 
MMX?

If you don't have an answer, does anyone know the subscription information 
for a listserv for CAUSE or Edutech?

Any help would be appreciated.  You can respond directly to me at      
nbird@teikyopost.edu.   Thanks!

Nora Bird
