The SUN sounds wonderful, if you're willing to spend $5-7K each for them
(which is reasonable in some industrial environments, but I find it
farfetched that a University would spend that kind of money on its
students for instruction) and if you don't want to work at home.

Couldn't you put a couple floppies and a modem on one of these things
and make it usable over a dialup?  If you're already spending $5K,
another $1500 seems insignificant for the extra capability.
