Yes very cool tools.  I guess thats what you get with probably the best tech
school in the world.

Define best... MIT may be best if cost is no object but I'd stump for my
alma mater MTU in terms of price/performance. Less than 1/5th the cost
when I went there and almost as good.

I guess I should have learned by know that there is no such thing as a casual
statement here.  I did not mean to get into a big debate on this but I do agree
that if cost is a factor then MIT is probably not quite what it is as when you
take cost out of the equation.

I am also going on reputaion (which is not allways a good way to make
judgements) more than anything.

I also did not go to MIT and feel very strongly about the education I received.
Anyway I did not mean to get into a debate over this but sometimes you don't
allways get what you want. :) .

I agree. If cost is no object, MIT is clearly in the top 5 in the world (along with CalTech)... (...) As long as you get what you neeeed... :-) (or is a stones reference dating me?) (25 years ago, 28-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
