When mainframes first entered the halls of academe, I'm sure the same sort of discussions arose. Heck, it's why computers like the PDP-8 were invented. Jim Just let me correct you there. Surely PDP-8s were calculators or Data Processing whatchamacallits, and emphatically NOT Computer Systems. (A history lesson is called for here - I cannot remember the exact terminology which allowed PDPs to be sold to individual labs and departments) --Sort of like when we buy PCs for the lab, they're "instrument controllers"..
