Re: 20000911: UNL Sun Enterprise 450 cost (cont.)

Tom,

Here's a copy of our quote.  The line items reflect special prices
Sun was offering at the time to educational customers.  In addition,
there was a further 50% discount (Sales Allowance Request, in Sun
jargon) that was applied because we purchased at least 10 workstations
for our lab.

Happy negotiating!
Clint

Since you've been working so hard on this, how about sending me the pqact
entries you've set up (I'm being lazy -- I haven't bothered to try to get
the png images yet.  But I have updated software and grabbed those
derived products starting right when they came out!)

I'll be interested in hearing about this

True enough.  Hopefully you can convince them to treat Unidata customers
nicely!

Okay.  Just got quote on new power circuit yesterday.  Still no graphics card.

Take care,
