Sorry I should clarify. I'm just looking for the cost of the monthly servi=
ce not the hardware. That is being covered by another fund.
Thanks...

Hello Folks,
We are building a residence hall here at UNTD and are having trouble gettin=
g a decent quote for budgetary estimate purposes for cost per student for I=
nternet access. This hall will have 125 residents. Has anyone done a simi=
lar cost analysis recently for a similar setup.
Thanks for your help.
