Im sorry, I am unwilling to believe this sort of thing.

Its on a 32proc e10k from what I hear.  500 users is hogwash.  I think the
real issue is that they have to use IPX right now still for it :(

It's really not the Universitys fault.  Peoplesoft and IBM get a nice
chunk of the blame for not developing the software to spec.
