I sat the lab a few weeks ago at RTP and the stuff wasn't bad at all. I had
color pencils, a monitor, keyboard, and a mouse. What else do you really
need? You open up the terminal program and start configuring. I had
Explorer to surf the DOCCD and notepad for my congfiguration samples. The
monitor didn't flicker and was fine. The DOCCD was amazingly fast, so I'm
thinking it's locally cached. In any case, I don't think you'll have any
problem with the gear there, unless it crashed due to unforeseen HW issues.
