UCC Machines

The UCC runs a variety of different hardware. Not just your old Windows machines, or even the increasingly common GNU/Linux or Mac OS X machines. The UCC likes to run lots of other operating systems and architectures, which are sometimes uncommon or extinct out there in the Real World.

The list of machines is currently up to date in the list below.
