成人直播 the service
The laptops have several applications installed on them including Microsoft Office and Skype. They can be borrowed for up to 4 hours and can be taken anywhere on either campus. They will have been charged before you borrow them, so you don鈥檛 need to find a charging point or plug socket 鈥� you can simply grab a comfortable spot in any building and log on to the BU-Student wireless network with your usual BU login details.
You will need to quickly register for the service before you can borrow聽laptop for the first time. To do that, you鈥檒l need your student card and to follow the simple instructions on the terminal screen at each of the locations above. Once you鈥檝e authenticated and agreed to the聽, you simply need to scan your student card on the reader of an available locker to open the door and take the laptop.
When you return the laptop to the locker, please remember to plug it in to the power adapter so it will聽charge for the next user, and to聽complete your loan.
If you have any questions regarding this scheme, please contact the IT Service Desk on 01202 965515 (option 1) or聽.
