- We have a lab of PC&Macs behind a locked door, with Operator cover (mainly
- there to take the money you understand...) and every user shows ID before
- sitting down.
-
- Whilst we don't let them off campus, we sometimes think this lab is probably
- more trustable than some staff PC's behind closed doors, and beats terminal
- servers (unsecured, that is) hands down. Of course its fascist, and scales
- terribly.
-

- innit?
