The aips installation is the same on Macs as Linux outside of the
NRAO.  Desktops at the AOC are put in a fixed system and at CV are in
a different system which I am trying to get migrated to that of the
AOC.  Macs are on a per-machine basis at present as are all laptops.

Beyond this I do not know what you are asking.  K Scott has a general
plan he follows with laptops as does AMY when updating them.
