Let's Talk About Your Team's Computers

[Chris_Ely]

Our programming/driver's station laptop in 2012 had a screen held on with tape, and a battery life of 5 minutes. This was still an improvement over the Classmate E9 that we got our rookie year.

We have since moved into the school's CAD lab where we have about 50 old HP workstation desktops, half of which have dual monitors. They originally ran Vista, now 7. They each have 2, 4 core Xeons (no hyperthreading) with 8GB of RAM and some unknown Quadro GPU. These should be replaced soon with money from a 2015 district infrastructure bond.

We also got some decent Dell business laptops donated for programming and driver's station.

We did at one point have a CNC plasma cutter with a computer that ran Windows Millennium Edition. (However, the last time it was used was probably the early 2000s).
