Well, we have a body of students who use whatever computer is not occupied by
its full-time assigned user. The computer name is in big black letters on a
big white lable. Still, these students, again working at whatever machine they
can find available, send me an email saying "My computer did this...". (Hey, I
just checked the DNS and AD tables. "MyComputer" doesn't exist!)
