Computing Center [n] In a University, that organization whose functions are
1) To impede wherever possible the development and usefulness of computing
on the campus, 2) To gain the lion's share of funding, spend it largely on
obolete and otherwise inappropriate Solutions, and convince the campuse(s)
wherever possible to expend their meager funds on the same, and 3) to
oppose vigorously any new, useful and popular technology for ten years or
more until nearly everyone on the campus(es) and elsewhere in the world is
using it, then to adopt that technology and immediately attempt to gain
complete and sole control of it [see MS-DOS, UNIX, ETHERNET, INTERNET].
