Hello everyone,

I have not done much crystallography in the past five years but I'm trying
to get back into it now because we stumbled upon a very interesting enzyme.
It seems a lot has changed in the computer hardware world. I was trained on
an SGI back in graduate school. What kind of hardware should I purchase to
run all the popular crystallography software? Also, which operating system
will give me the least headache? We are basically starting from scratch. Our
department has a new Bruker machine and an older Rigaku we can use. Any
advice you may have will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your
comments.
