Movement of Pentiums from WCC to ACC


Suggestion:
It would be very helpful if a few (like two or three) of the Pentiums from the WCC or the G-Lab were moved into the ACC. Since only the ACC is open 24 hours, it's impossible to get hold of a Pentium with the 24 bit displays (the "Multimedia" computer seems to not have the same graphics hardware as all the other Pentiums, I could only get it to go up to 64K colors, I believe) past midnight on weekdays.

Anyway, since there isn't a huge demand, I'm sure a few would serve the need. Plus, the few that are removed from the WCC or Teague can be replaced by 486's, which won't matter much to the people that use them (mostly for word processing and the like).

Solution: (from CIS Operations Associate Director)
We had pentiums and 486's both in the ACC at one time and it caused problems with the server. We have found that the servers work much better if we do not mix the PC's attached to them. Therefore we put all 486's at the ACC and all pentiums at the West Campus Library.
