 * At some times, the `project` machines may be allocated to specific students for project use and not available for general access.
 * The `texel`, `matrix`, `visual` and `corona` machines use on-board Intel graphics.
 * The `edge` and `pixel` machines feature discrete [[http://www.amd.com/uk/products/desktop/graphics/amd-radeon-hd-6000/hd-6450/Pages/amd-radeon-hd-6450-overview.aspx|AMD Radeon HD 6450]] graphics cards.
 * The `graphic` work-stations are fitted with more-advanced, Nvidia CUDA-capable graphics cards.
 * The configuration may vary slightly from the above on some machines.
 * All systems have flat panel LCD colour displays, and are networked via 1Gb/s [[services/networks|Ethernet]].
 * All systems in Room 219 (edges, coronas, matrices and visuals) are single-boot Linux. Windows is available as a virtual service on these machines.
 * All systems in Rooms 202 and 206 (pixels and texels) are dual-boot Linux and Windows.

Teaching Labs: Workstations

These are the workstations available in the teaching labs. Please note that timetabled lab and tutorial sessions have priority over all other uses; details are usually posted on the door of each of the rooms, if not, please check the room timetables.

The workstations are either dual boot 64-bit Microsoft Windows 7 and 64-bit Ubuntu 13.04 Linux (all PCs in 202 and 206), or have Linux with a Windows 7 virtual machine (all PCs in 219). There are various project machines, plus 7 Macs running MacOS X in 210.
