How the public clusters are related to the residential network -- same
services available, different services available?  One server for clusters
and resnet or different servers (i.e. does instructional software have to
be mounted in two places, or is a common server available both from the
clusters and from the rooms)?  How are copyright issues affecting the
differences, if any, between what goes on in clusters and what is available
over the resnet?  Differential costs for accessing software from the resnet
and from the clusters?  Is anybody serving material from CDROMs -- in
general, how is CDROM material handled in clusters?
