-====== Physics Computer Lab Systems ======
-The Physics student computing lab is located in room 80 of Tate Lab, and the Astronomy computer lab is in room 469B.
-{{  computing:department:lab_door.jpg|Room 80 Computer Lab}}
-===== Physics Student Computer Lab (Room 80) =====
-==== Lab Access ====
-The computer lab is open to all Physics undergraduate and graduate students.
-**Access to the lab is by a Ucard card reader**. If you have trouble getting access, please check your Physics Directory entry to verify your Ucard number: http://www.physics.umn.edu/resources/myphys/profile/edit_dirinfo_form.html
-==== Linux ====
-The lab contains five quad-core Linux workstations, each with 6 GBytes memory.
-You need a **Physics account** to log in to these systems - your University Internet account will not work.
-These can be used for any kind of general computing needs. They contain Mathematica, MatLab, compilers for C, C++ and Fortran, as well as various other programming tools and physics-specific software. Microsoft Office is also available on these systems.
-     * Please don't reset or restart a workstation - someone may have jobs running on it, or be using it from another location.
-     * If you're going to run a cpu-intensive job, use //condor// so your job can run efficiently without affecting interactive users.
-     * Don't lock the screen and leave for long periods. If a workstation screen is locked, and someone wants to use it, we will reset your session.
-Users also have access to the department's computational facilities via the [[:computing:department:unix:jobs:condor|condor batch system]].
-     * [[:computing:department:unix:home|More about UNIX and Linux at Tate Lab]]
-==== Windows ====
-The lab also contains five Core 2 Duo Windows systems, each with 4 Gbytes memory, running Windows 7.
-Login to these uses your University internet username and password (but you still need to be in the Physics directory for login to work).
-These contain the [[:computing:department:windows:software|standard Windows software]] set for Tate Lab: Microsoft Office, Firefox, Acrobat, Mathematica, etc.
-     * [[:computing:department:windows:home|More about Windows at Tate Lab]]
-===== Astronomy Student Computer Lab (Room 469) =====
-This lab contains four linux and one windows workstation, with specifications and software similar to above.
