Re: Let's Talk About Your Team's Computers

We have the privilege of having a crap ton of computers provided to the school. The downside is only three of them are technically ours.

We have basically the entire school's CAD lab's worth of computers for using Inventor. These work fine, but, since, they're large desktop, we can't use them at events or when working with other teams. These were literally specced to use Inventor, so these work great.

We also just got five older laptops from the school without wi-fi cards. We've used them in so many cases just to have a spare screen laying around. Slideshow? Check-in? Scouting? It works really well.

We also have three WinXP-era laptops that we use as daily drivers for programming. We upgraded one to Win10, but we didn't upgrade any of the others due to issues with mDNS. These work great, but we really are looking at new ones for this upcoming year.
