Eldor will need to be reinstalled. Our installation is tied to AFS and our infrastructure. Going to windows or a standalone Linux system seems like a good idea.

It may be better to set up user accounts on or to lease CAC v4-64g node (64 GB Read Hat Linux). Lease option may be practicable if the node is used intensively. CAC operates in cost recovery mode, we just need to estimate fees.
ELDOR may not blend with any of CAC's blade systems, so it could be decommissioned and used locally at ACERT as a LINUX or WINDOWS 64-bit development platform. Kevin Hobbs and I can host it if CRCF would not.
Alternatively, I can use it for 3D-EM simulations, for example, since its GPUs are not used by any NLLS code. We surely can find a good use to it.
