34 Cadets will be issued a computer package to include their laptop, peripherals, and back pack for transporting the laptop. The computers are intended to meet or exceed all requirements set forth by the academic departments and support the security policies and regulations of a military network. It is often essential that computers are brought to every class, and, as such, they are an essential part of the teaching environment. The on-site facilities can claim an average 24-hour (or better) turnaround time on hardware and software repairs. These repair facilities only work on the computers issued by West Point due to warranty and training programs. Telephone/Texting Service Barracks are equipped on all foors with an internal antenna system, providing high quality cellular coverage for voice and data transmission. Carriers currently providing service are Verizon Wireless, AT&T, Sprint/Nextel, and T-Mobile.
