Actually, this is the first one I’ve seen in a while that does this kind of Venn diagram right. Giving examples in the 3 secondary overlaps, rather than just “Not [Thing That Is Missing]“
Was this graph made in 1993 when the only stuff you did in the computer lab was work on your homework for Computer Basics 101? Seriously, this is 2010. Why don’t you have your own computer?
Where I did my undergrad, both the art department and the music department had their own computer labs with nothing but macs, and one of the 4 general computer labs had two macs as well.
That was my question. I think the worst thing in my last school’s computer lab (the only one I’ve spent much time in, thus far) had was wonky mouses (mice?) and more commonly, the little legs on keyboards were broken.
Seriously. The universities I’ve been in are always the same; computer labs=98% perfectly good computers that are taken, the remaining 2% out of order. XD
You should just stay out of the public/library computer labs and use the ones in your computer science department. Those are generally up to date with linux and run about 15x faster than all the others with great internet access.
Not here! They are windows-infested, slow, semi-functional at best (I started bringing my trackball since the mice are unusable) and internet connections remind of the 56k days…
One of the labs I use has IBM/Lenovo machines which are pretty-good (3-year-old Core 2, 4GB RAM, 64-bit Windows)… but they decided to keep their old 15″ CRTs which are SO worn out you can barely see details in images.
Fortunately I can just bring my netbook and connect it to one of the dozens of wide-open WLANs (usually from research labs) there.
Not to get started about the computers in the library… “thin clients” where you can see windows being drawn and it takes minutes to open a browser.

Venn diagrams when done like this get old and unfunny very fast.

you are wrong. It is wordy, but it still essentially does this (not this).
it just wasted 10 more seconds of my life to figure that out.
still giving 1/5 as i do all of these graphs.
“Lab closing soon” should be replaced with “Typical university computer lab”!
Just gonna let you guys know you need to get there first to get a good computer just like i got the FIRST comment
fail.
Aww man, just kidding my message took to long to write
I second that.
Seriously, the only good one of these i’ve seen in ages is the ramen noodles one.

No no no, the middle bit is that lab that’s always full of people on Facebook and graphjam.
I agree!!

because not everyone can afford their own computer
Usually, software that I can’t have on my computer at a reasonable price…Adobe Photoshop, MATLAB, various CAD tools, etc.
I’m not paying $2000 in licensing fees so that I don’t have to go to the lab.
Typically those are all free through the university (that’s how I got them).
Welcome to the 21st century.
Get a Mac
As if a professional university computer lab is going to have macs…
Where I did my undergrad, both the art department and the music department had their own computer labs with nothing but macs, and one of the 4 general computer labs had two macs as well.
Pitt satellite campus FTW.
My two year college I just left, and my 4 year state university computer labs both have Macs.
Yep, they do, actually…a couple full labs dedicated to them.
Yes, because macs are immune to such things as people walking off with the keyboard or a sketchy network.
(and yes, I do realize this is just a bad troll.)
what kind of crap school do you attend?
Apparently one that requires students to assemble the computers themselves.
That was my question. I think the worst thing in my last school’s computer lab (the only one I’ve spent much time in, thus far) had was wonky mouses (mice?) and more commonly, the little legs on keyboards were broken.

You forgot the part about where most of the students on the computers are checking their facebook, watching youtube…generally not doing work….
What, you don’t like using XP SP1 with Internet Explorer 6?
First Bush presidency?
Offhand, I think you’re looking at 3.1. Mighta still been DOS.

At my college wich is also an university, the Computers has the combination of the 3….not to decipoint you.
And that would be where, exactly? I can’t decide what your native tongue should be from your slightly off-kilter English.
Hmm I suspect many other college students would have this complaint:
“75% of computers being used for facebook”

lol… Bush Ruins Everything :3
“Every other 37 seconds”? Isn’t that just every 74 seconds?
Was this graph made in 1993 when the only stuff you did in the computer lab was work on your homework for Computer Basics 101? Seriously, this is 2010. Why don’t you have your own computer?
I think you swiched the “web connection every 37 seconds” and no software updates…”
