+I manage the two Minsky machines available to the C3SR center at Illinois.
+
+## Minsky Machine Overview
+
+| Product | IBM S822LC |
+|---------|------------|
+| Model   | 8335-GTB   |
+| CPU     | 2x Power8  |
+| GPU     | 4x NVIDIA P100 w/ 16GB RAM |
+| RAM     | 512 GB |
+
+Each P8 CPU has 10 cores with 8-way SMT, yielding 80 threads per CPU or 160 threads on each Minsky machine.
+
+Each CPU is connected to two NVIDIA P100s by two NVLinks each. Those two P100s are also connected by two NVLinks. The machine is a pair of these CPU-GPU-GPU triangles, connected at the CPUs by an IBM *X bus*.
+
+## Access
+
+Minsky1 may be accessed at `minsky1-1.csl.illinois.edu`
+
+Minsky2 may be accessed at `minsky2-1.csl.illinois.edu`
+
+Both machines are behind the UIUC firewall. You will need to be on the UIUC network (either on-campus or through VPN) to access the machines.
