Those used to be for reduction of data, but now we're using a terminal computer approach. We call this a '''thin client''' and they're similar to the "old days" where there was some computer in a basement somewhere and many terminals connected to them. There should be a username and password on the top of every screen in each of the domes, but the general approach will be ccd<telescope>, and then the standard SAAO password. e.g. ccd40, and <standard password>.
