1.+Different+systems

There are five configurations on different computers at Epsom.

 * 1.The coloured iMacs** in Room 1 are running system 9. Some older infant software like PM story books and phonics alive runs on this only. There is no dock (remember?) but there is something called the launcher where the programs are organised. One click open the programs.


 * 2.The blue iMacs** are running 10.4 and have a dock. However they can't run iWeb. iPhoto and iTunes can be used. These computers are wireless though which makes them handy for if there are no network points. These computers are iMacs and can also run OS 9 software.[[image:IMG_0226.jpg width="224" height="168" align="right" caption="eMac with 10.4"]]


 * 3.The emacs in the computer lab** are running 10.4.11 and have a blue student desktop.They have a dock and can work iWeb 2.0. These computers can run OS 9 software also. These comp can't be logged onto and a beach ball will spin and never get anywhere and require a restart by holding in the power button until a white dot appears on the black screen.


 * 4.Some eMacs in the comp lab** are running 10.5 and have a purple student desk top. Students can log in on these computers. But can only use iWeb 2.0. (not enough brain power for the iWeb 3.0 has to be intel chip)


 * 5.All flat screen computers (iMacs & Mac minis) and laptops** are running 10.5.6 and can run iWeb 3.0 and can log in to a students file. ( Not sure on the laptops in Rm 1 and Rm 2 with the whiteboards.
