Rosina:

Faculty who have minimal internet needs, and use their machines for email
and word processing have been very satisfied with having their 66 to 120mhz
Macs  upgraded to 36+mb of Ram.

We purchase new, (fast as we can afford) machines for those who have high
web needs, teach classes on web, create/download/use graphics, etc. for
multimedia courseware development, etc.

Ultimately, we  upgrade all our faculty machines, often with re-cycling our
"faster than most faculty" machines when we replace them,  but the above
sets our priorities.

Our lab must have newer machines and we are currently replacing our range
of museum Macs (IIsi's-7200s) with iMacs, G3's and G4's to support our
classes doing multimedia and web classes.  We hope to upgrade every 3+
years when and if use and/or software require it.

Hello All,

I would appreciate very much some suggestions on memory upgrades. We have a
very old lab, that has four and five year old computers, Macintoshes. Some
of our faculty suggested to upgrade these Macintoshes with memory instead
of buying new computers. Personally I think it is not a good idea. Hence
before we do it, I would like very much to have a feet back on that issue
from you. Your opinion and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank
you.
