Because tops and legs are purchased separately, end users who opt for the system's shared-leg ganging feature save money because common legs support multiple tops. Not only is it cost effective, it gives you one big table on which to put a number of computers. We've found this to be a stable configuration. If you bump into tables joined by shared legs, they're not at all likely to move. Currently, Mission College has equipped a number of learning environments with the tables, most notably its UNIX Systems administration lab.
Plans are also in the works to install the furniture in the college's writing lab.
In this lab, used by both the English Department and English as a Second Language students, the system supports a Macintosh-based environment. Judd also hopes to put the tables to work in two additional settings. One would be a newly remodeled, dedicated facility for UNIX systems administration, and the other would house the college's Cisco Academy.
