The main benefit of becoming a CSC member is to get access to our various
machines. We offer a large range of hardware, including Alpha, MIPS,
UltraSPARC, i386, and AMD64. Our primary development machine, taurine, is
2007-09-19 16:21:59 -04:00
a dual AMD Opteron (4 cores in total) with 8 GiB of RAM. Most of our
2008-07-14 09:06:36 -04:00
machines are connected via gigabit ethernet. We offer 4 GB of disk quota
that is accessible across all of our machines. Our wiki contains a <a

list</a>.

Members also receive a username@csclub.uwaterloo.ca email address.
Mailboxes are considered as part of your disk quota, so your mailbox may
grow up to the amount of disk quota you have. Attachments of any file size
2007-09-19 16:30:42 -04:00
or type may be sent. Our mail server runs a POP3, IMAP, and SMTP server with
SSL/TLS enabled. You can also access your mail via a <a
href="https://mail.csclub.uwaterloo.ca">secure web interface</a>.
