State and UC systems are both excellent bargains. When I was in college,
the state was spending somewhere around $9,000 per student, and tuition
was $1000 a year. Plus, we had a whole lab of HP 9000's. I have to admit,
I made it through college without buying a computer, and I was proud of
it. Of course, that was 9 years ago.
