    It's unbearable at times but is often the only place with available computers. Is it purposely like this or has nobody said anything about it yet.:P

    Lots of computers + lots of users = heat

    There are 4 computer rooms in the Panoz which are always empty, use those?

    In the Mac Lab there hot air being pumped in, little to do with the people being there tbh.

    Rarely empty during the day tbh. Loads of classes go on in there aswell so I've had to leave on numerous occasions.

    It's great to walk in there when you're really cold although leaving is horrible.

    Great spot, perfect temperature and near the nice toilets in Botany (trust me, they're really nice!:D).
    The are two problems however;
    1) Computers not working on a number of occasions,
    2) Noisey engineering/botany students, pain in the nuts while finishing off an assignment.

    The best place to go to: 1937 Reading Room ftw!;)
