NACS maintains six computer labs for campus use, and we have upgraded many of our systems to meet the demands of a new academic year.
The 25 Macintosh systems in Lab A (Engineering Gateway 1131) have been upgraded to 533Mhz G4 Towers with 15″ flat-panel displays and CD-RW drives.
The 46 computers in MSTB 210 have been upgraded to Gateway “Profile 3″ PCs featuring 1Ghz Intel Celeron processors, 512MB memory, and 15” flat-panel displays. The 733Mhz PCs which were used in this lab last year are now available in Lab C (Engineering Gateway 1151).
All of Knack’s PC labs now run Windows 2000 Professional and require a login process using UCInetIDs and passwords. It is necessary to activate one’s UCInetID before using these facilities. (See http://www.activate.uci.edu).
