Hrm, Well 7-4 is out of the way and a 745, which is why I picked it.   
Granted, if it's b0rked, people have to go downstairs.  On the other  
hand, it's valuable to have feedback, and I've seen people studiously  
avoiding the Debathena workstations in m12 when the cluster is full,  
so *shrug*.

For twins, it's either:

- one of the two in W20-3xx  (GX620)
- one of the two in W20-copytech (HPs)
- one of the two in W20 main lobby (HPs)
- one of the four in 11  (GX620s)
- one of the two in 16 (GX620)
- one of the various pairs in select dorms

I'd probably go with w20-3xx or one of the building 11 ones, but  
GX620s are 3 year old hardware...
