Here's a blurb about the CS dept at Brandeis currently sent out to all
prospective undergrads.

	With the faculty actively involved in the field
	as well as the classroom, students have access
	to the most avant-garde machines....David Waltz,
	professor of computer science at Brandeis and
	a member of the staff at the Cambridge-based
	Thinking Machines Corporation, has arranged for 
	one of the company's computers -- the equivalent of
	64,000 IBM PCs -- to be accessible to the University.

They fail to mention whether those PCs have VGA or not.
