Re: 2005 Palmetto Regional

Alright, now I've got some motivation for y'all to come to Palmetto beyond great robot action...

FREE WIRELESS!

USC's putting in a new wireless network, which guests can get access to (provided your system is patched up properly). The network only opens up http access, but it's enough for me to check ChiefDelphi from the couch in the Preston lobby.

I have not been down to the Colonial Center to test access, but you definitely can get access on the Horseshoe, which is a couple of blocks uphill. (If you're looking at a USC map, the wireless network goes functionally from the Horseshoe to Swearingen--perhaps the Bates area at the south end of campus. I don't believe that Computer Services is aiming the network down to the Colonial Center area.)

And I'm still working on that campus guide slowly but surely...expect it after ship day.
