Realm Workstations
Most all of the workstations in BOM are Realm Workstations. They are mostly Dell computers, installed with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, and customized for the NCSU environment. On these machines, one has access to everything a normal NCSU linux workstation has, plus access to the /physics home directories, as well as all the additional software that I've installed.
