no, we went from 3300 to 3098 and now we go back to 3500.
I kept everything for 3300, because I thought a little bit of extra monay 
will not harm.

Fernando I gave you all the info last week. The fdc document for the 
costs, the xls-sheets and there is also a cdc cost document, which is on 
the portal 
http://argus.phys.uregina.ca/cgi-bin/private/DocDB/ShowDocument?docid=764

this is a good idee, bit I strongly suggest that the things are kept in 
one place like in the past. Also the electronics is not completely under 
the fdcs or the cdcs, so having it like that is differnt to how we need 
things. Actually if there are changes Eugene I think it is better to 
update the files on the m-drive.

cheers elke
