I am not a member in the Vision "lab", can I still get an account?

This cluster was purchased by the three Vision groups to support our research, and the priority in using it is given to people who work in Vision. However, other members of the Lab may be able to use the cluster, on a lower priority basis. If you are interested, please send email to gregory _at_ csail. Please explain what kind of jobs you would be running, and how often. Note: you must already have an AI account.
