Overview
Gustavus-owned computers have a specific naming convention.

Facutly/Staff Computers
The name of faculty and staff computers begin with their Gustavus username followed by a dash and a number. The number is the first available number based on the number of network devices the user has registered.
(example: jsmith-3)
Special use computers
Other computers on campus have a special 9-character code which helps to quickly identify their location and purpose. A fictitious example might be AA100MW00.
