Hi - - -
Several of our workstations were hacked into last week. While I am not
sure that all of our workstations were tampered with, I would rather be
safe than sorry and have the system software reinstalled on each one.
Could you please send someone by either today or tomorrow to have the
software reinstalled. The type of machine, serial number, and location
are below.

I understand that the beginning of the fall semester is a busy time for you.
If you can't send someone within the next two days, then can I pickup the
boot disks and instructions from someone on how to do the system installation
myself?
Thanks for your help.
Garrett
