        Yes. In each room their will be a 5ESS jack that will provide
        access to MITnet. In your room because you have multiple machines, 
        you will be provided a multiport transceiver capable of supporting 
        2, 3 or 4 machines of the one MITnet drop, and AUI cables. 

        This equipment will be provided to the RCC's (Residential Computing 
        Consultants) in each dorm. I check and you live in Burton. The RCC's

        Burton : Brandon Porter : bwporter
        Burton : Catherine Preston : cassie
  
        IP Addresses can also be obtained from your RCC.  All this stuff will 
        be available the beginning of term.
        
        
                Thanks,         - Mike -
