> Download Equipment Allegedly Stored in Building 20

I assume this is a typo? or is there a recent renumbered bldg?




No, that is correct. He left his hard drive and laptop in the SIPB office in W20. See the Tech's article from August 2011.

Ah, you're right (W20 != 20). The basement wiring closet was Building 16, but the SIPB stuff was W20. (you can tell by the ghetto furniture with duct tape).

SIPB at least used to be pretty friendly about letting visiting "reasonable" people plug into the network, based on whoever was at the office at the time.
