Here at the University of Notre Dame, I am a student monitor for a Macintosh
Lab with: 11 Mac SE's, 11 Mac 512's & Plus's (I'm not exactly sure how many of
each), a Mac II doing file and printer serving, 1 Imagewriter I and two
LaserWriter Plus's.  We use AppleServe and AppleShare.  We use PhoneNet, and
the same network serves the entire building (the lab plus about 5 more II's and
maybe 7 more Plus's and SE's.)  The lab is open 24 hours a day, and there are
consultantants on duty 8AM - 10PM weekdays.  During other hours our mainframe
operations staff is available to feed the LaserWriters paper and toner
cartridges, etc.  We are extremely happy with Appleshare, especially after an
experience with a Corvus network.  Each of the Macs has its own account, which
gives that Mac access to a private folder with its own copy of MacWrite.  Other
software is available to all the Macs, with more than one copy for some popular
single-user software.

If you run a similar lab, or would like to talk with us at all, please send
mail to me at C4TKG3@IRISHMVS.BITNET and we'll be glad to help.
