Haha we feel exactly the opposite. The first year one of our mentors developed this beautiful
labview frontend that fed into a database. Once we realized that we could so easily manipulate the data in a database we were hooked. It made pre-match strategy and alliance selection analysis soooo much simpler. Plus the students love computers, so it was an outlet that let them use computers. If we made them use an excel sheet or something I'm sure it wouldn't be the same.
We like 1676 use 6 laptops and a master (though our master is for data collection & analysis only - for getting data for our pre-match strategy sheets)
