For spring/summer 2008, faculty can
select from 35 different configurations of Dell, Fujitsu, HP, and Apple
computers with Windows XP Professional, Windows Vista, or Macintosh OS OS X operating
systems.
Baseline computers (2008-01, 2008-02, 2008-07, 2008-9, 2008-11, 2008-12, 2008-13, 2008-15, & 2008-18) are
supplied by default at no charge. All Other models (2008-03, 2008-04,
2008-05, 2008-06, 2008-08, 2008-10, 2008-14, 2008-16, 2008-17, 2008-19, 2008-20, & 2008-21) require an additional
departmental payment as indicated. By default, a baseline desktop
computer will be supplied for all participants (named or unnamed) for
whom no information has been supplied by January 4, 2008.
Computer delivery will begin by early April, 2008. If the "pre-install"
option (Delivery Option 3) was selected, delivery will be be delayed until late May. See Delivery Option 3 below.
For detailed information about computer warranty, please go to FDI Hardware
Support. Detailed 2008 warranty information will be posted
prior to spring delivery.
Software installation and computer delivery options:
In
recognition of many requests for self-installation and configuration of
software, and to expedite early spring delivery of computers to
faculty, FDI no longer pre-installs software on the computers. Instead,
CD-ROMs are provided for all FDI software (see list below) so that
faculty, or their departmental support person, can install the software
in a manner that best suits their personal preferences.
Those faculty who would prefer someone else install the software should
first ask for assistance from their departmental technical support
staff. If not feasible, they can request that their computer arrive
with software already installed by FDI. This pre-install option must be
selected during the FDI registration process in December. Please note
that selecting the pre-installed software option means your computer
will not be delivered until mid-May or later
Delivery
Option #1
FDI will
deliver the computer in early Spring and each individual faculty or
department technical support will install software from CD-ROMs
supplied by FDI.
Delivery
Option #2
FDI will
deliver the computer after May 19 and each individual faculty or
department technical support will install software from CD-ROMs
supplied by FDI.
Delivery Option #3
FDI will
deliver the computer after May 19 with standard software to be
installed by FDI (CD-ROMs will still be provided).
Contact FDI (fdi@vt.edu) if you have
questions concerning computers or software.
