We have several Dell laptop computers available for borrowing: contact Sally Butterfield for access in the first instance. The laptops are encrypted and intended primarily for testing done by the Speech & Language Group. Please plan ahead and arrange your booking by sending an email to sally.butterfield or referring to the booking sheets in the Speech Lab. Check that the appropriate software is available on the machine you borrow. The laptops have very limited writing capabilities - no Word documents; you can only view, not write, in Excel, etc. To make files writable, you need to transfer them to the CBU network. Installation of licensed software is done by the Computing Staff; PLAN AHEAD. Don't assume that previous versions of software will be kept on the laptops; it may be upgraded and replaced. If using a particular version of s/ware is important, ask Computing Staff whether it can be backed-up for later use.

To avoid shortages, it is helpful to know when you hope to use a laptop(s).
