LEASE OF COMPUTER EQUIPMENT FOR COLLEGE OF COMMERCE AND BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION, URBANA

(22) The Department of Computer Science and the College of Commerce and Business Administration at Urbana-Champaign have reviewed their requirements for computing equipment being used in instruction and research. It has been concluded that the leased model 1801 computing system soon to be released by the Computer Science Laboratory in Urbana, with certain modifications, can be advantageously used in the College of Commerce and Business Administration instruction and research areas and will be more economical than other equipment which had been planned. The International Business Machines Corporation has proposed a change order in our existing agreement for IBM machine services which would permit the University to transfer the reconfigured model 1801 system from the Computer Science Laboratory to the College of Commerce and Business Administration. Based upon an anticipated effective transfer date of March 1, 1971, the University could acquire title of the reconfigured 1801 system at a total cost of $41,266.40
