But you can't leave your computer there. eep.

Look. There's plenty of desk space. There'll be even more if we get rid of
the machine room and look at throwing UCC machines into a couple of racks
hidden away against a wall.

If people keep bringing their machines in then _make room for them_.
Don't just throw crap in the middle of the room for everyone to trip over.
perhaps, _GASP_, someone might consider putting the CPU boxes under
the tables if there were enough room to sit.

How often does anyone in UCC _use_ the stuff lurking under the tables?
Not very often. We can always go and get a strange monitor out of storage
if its required.
