We have an SP5 in our facility and the only thing we have been told by
leica we can't do is connect it to a network, which is fine for us as
the network here is notoriously unstable.

We run our own anti-virus software and defrag utilities on it, as well
as a few admin apps to track data usage etc.


Cheers

I think there is some confusion here.  I think you are talking about the
low-cost SPE, which runs a really cut-down OS.  I don't think any of
this applies to the SP5.

We have been told by the Leica rep here that we may put no program on
the SP5 computer -- not ImageJ, not Winzip, nothing. We were also told
that the computer may not be connected to the network, except when they
want to do service.
To more exact, we were told that if we want anything on the machine, we
need to ask Leica to do it (and to pay for it to be done).


Is this how all  the SP5 users out there are using their systems?

Aside from the obvious  reasons that this policy bothers us, we have a
problem because the IT  people in the university will not permit a
computer to be connected to the network unless they have installed their
approved anti-virus program personally.

If the issue is delicate, perhaps you may prefer to reply off list.
