Re: [Palindrome] bad news about wired internet and the mystery cabinet



Yes, I definitely think we could do that. At the very least, it would be a good last resort. There is an Athena cluster not too far from where our rooms are (go down the hall, and down to the first floor, and there you are).

I've decided that my work is boring, so I'll go scout out as much as I can later this afternoon.

This may be a useless suggestion, but here goes: Can
we use the Athena cluster printers?  We did that a few
years back on Acme when we were printerless.  Clearly
we can't print out any type of answers or work toward
them, but puzzles should be OK, esp if we can run
someone over to the printer room to pick them up as
soon as they print (to prevent other teams who may not
have gotten those puzzles yet from seeing them).  This
has the advantage of getting us a much faster printer,
and may be especially useful at the beginning of round
when we'll want to print out a whole lot of copies of
a whole lot of puzzles.

I know that we'd need the password to the rooms and/or
printers, but presumably our MIT folks have that.

With Jon's suggestion, we should be fine.  If we
NEED to be wired, hopefully
the 50'er will do it.

Wireless is easy enough to setup.  You just need
to connect, fill out
some
info, and yer on.

Hi Carol,

What does one have to do to access wireless?

Thanks,
Erik



P.S.  Of course, the wireless internet does
work fine.
