<h3>The Expo Laptops: Crowley's Friend: Aziraphale</h3>
<p>The <i>expo laptop</i> is called "Crowley". Crowley was rather too ill to be useful during the 2022 expo (being left in the potato hut for 3 years was not a healthy experience) but is now feeling much better... apart from the WiFi which died in typical fashion just 10 minutes before a training session.
<p>The <i>expo laptop</i> is called "Crowley". Crowley was rather too ill to be useful during the 2022 expo (being left in the potato hut for 3 years was not a healthy experience) but is now feeling much better... apart from the WiFi which died in typical fashion just 10 minutes before a training session (a software driver update issue, but Crowley is connected to the ethernet cable so this is not vital).
<p>In 2023 we will have another general-use laptop (it was also on expo in 2019). This is not connected by any cabling and just uses WiFi. Like the <i>expo laptop</i> it is running Debian and has the same set of software installed
(survex/aven, tunnelx, therion, git etc.) and you login to it using the username "expo" and the usual cavey:beery password. It has the [Wayland] window manager, so looks a bit different to the [Cinnamon] desktop on Crowley. It is an R61 14-inch Thinkpad on loan from Michael Sargent and it is called "Aziraphale". Azirophale has a big enough solid-state drive (128GB, new for 2023) to hold <var>/expofiles/</var> (but note that Azirophale's SD code slot doesn't work).

<p>Both laptops have had RAM upgrades and solid-state disc upgrades over winter 2022/23.
