This page has been migrated to a document on Free Geek's Google Drive. Information remaining behind may no longer be relevant. MIGRATOR: When you have tagged this page as migrated, (Link to new page immediately below.) |
This document is for "Policy" reference when building a box.
You will also find a build specs printout on deadtrees that does not list all the possible combinations of systems that can be built. This was done to keep confusion to a minimum in the build room. For instance, the build spec printout does not indicate that a Core 2 Duo can be built as a highend, however this document indicates that a Core 2 Duo can be built for a highend. Go with what this document indicates as acceptable.
The currently accepted process for having a highend built with a Core 2 Duo is to put a tag on it indicating that it is to be built as a highend. Current goal is to always have 2 built Core 2 Duos on the ready to go shelf(this may change as the number of systems avalible fluctuate).
