+Many think of the Open Computing Facility as an on-campus resource for free
+printing. While this is true, and printing is certainly our most-demanded
+service (we print hundreds of thousands of pages per year), there are plenty of
+other great services provided by the OCF, which come free with your account!
+
+Note: the following information applies to individual accounts, not group
+accounts. To request an account for your student group, or for information on
+student group web hosting, check out
+[our group account page](LINK-GOES-HERE).
+
+## Free Computing
+
+The OCF was founded to provide all members of the Cal campus community with
+computing resources. Anytime we're open, all members of the community are
+welcome to use the computers for any reason – not just to print. All of the
+computers in the OCF run Linux and have a variety of useful applications
+pre-installed.
+* Google Chrome, Firefox, and Brave are all installed, allowing you to choose
+your preferred web browser.
+* The LibreOffice suite is installed as an alternative to Microsoft Office. It
+is mostly cross-compatible with Office files, meaning one can import or export
+.docx/.pptx/.xlsx files. You can also use Google Docs from a web browser.
+* GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) is provided as an alternative to Adobe
+Photoshop, and Inkscape replaces Adobe Illustrator. For animation and 3D
+modeling, we provide access to Blender.
+* Rather than iTunes/QuickTime or Windows Media Player, you can access music or
+video files using VLC.
+* Pre-installed IDEs include Atom and Visual Studio Code.
+* The default PDF utility is Document Viewer, which can be used to view, print,
+and edit PDFs.
+* Steam is installed, if you would like to play video games.
+Most of these applications can be found on the desktop, and all applications
+can be accessed from the menu in the top-left corner of the screen, analogous
+to the Start menu in Windows. We also offer three computers with dedicated
+scanners, and one with a CD/DVD reader.
+
+## Persistent File Storage
+
+When you log out of one of our desktop computers, any files you saved to that
+computer will be erased. This is because most files saved to these computers
+are immediately printed, so there is no need to take up disk space holding onto
+them. However, some users may wish to have access to their files every time
+they log in to an OCF desktop. As part of your OCF account, you gain access to
+15 GB of free file storage on OCF servers. This file storage is accessible by
+clicking on the "OCF File Storage" icon on any desktop computer or by
+[SSHing into our account server](https://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/docs/services/shell/).
+
+Files placed in the "OCF File Storage" folder are accessible from any desktop
+computer and are saved even after you log out, whereas files placed in the
+"Home" folder are local to that computer and are deleted upon log-out. The "OCF
+File Storage" folder should contain a folder called "public_html", which is
+used for web hosting – see below.
+
+## Free Printing
+
+By signing up for an account, you get 200 free sides of printing (200 pages
+single-sided, 100 pages double-sided). We print black-and-white only, in
+economode (meaning the ink may be a bit lighter than expected). You are limited
+to 20 sides of printing per day. We ask that you download or export any
+documents they wish to print as PDFs first, as these work best with our print
+server.
+
+## Web Hosting
+
+When you create an OCF account, you also gain acccess to web hosting space on
+our domain: ocf.berkeley.edu/\~yourusername. You can create your own website
+using HTML/CSS/JS or use a system like WordPress or Django. Alternatively, you
+can use your website as file storage. For more technical information on
+building your website, check out
+[our web hosting page](https://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/docs/services/web/).
+
+If you are a signatory of a student group and would like to request a website
+under the berkeley.edu domain (i.e. ocf.berkeley.edu) you will need to create a
+group account and complete a few steps before making your request. Instructions
+can be found on [our vhost page](https://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/docs/services/vhost/).
+
+## Miscellaneous
+
+The OCF provides various other services to all users, such as access to our
+high-performance computing cluster, Mastadon instance, software mirrors, a
+personal MySQL database, and more. For a full list and futher (more technical)
+documentation, visit [our services page](https://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/docs/services/).

+If you are a signatory of a Registered Student Organization (RSO) or other
+eligible group here at Berkeley, then you are can create a group account for
+your organization. Group accounts may not be used for printing, but do provide
+your RSO with access to other services, such as web and mail hosting.
+
+To request a group account, please come to
+[OCF staff hours](ocf.io/staff-hours). If you're not sure if your group is
+eligible for a group account, refer to our
+[eligibility page](https://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/docs/membership/eligibility/#h2_groups).
+
+## Web Hosting (group.berkeley.edu)
+
+When you create any OCF account, you gain access to web hosting space on our
+domain: ocf.berkeley.edu/\~yourusername. However, eligible groups may also
+request their own subdomains of the berkeley.edu domain, i.e.
+group.berkeley.edu. This allows you to create a website for your student group.
+There are various requirements set by the University and the OCF for such
+websites; for instructions on setting up your website, visit our
+[web hosting documentation](ocf.io/vhost) or visit the lab during
+[staff hours](ocf.io/staff-hours).
+
+## Mail Hosting ([email protected])
+
+Once you've set up your website, you can also enable email forwarding so you
+can send and receive emails from arbitrary addresses on your domain, i.e.
+[email protected]. Emails sent to these addresses will be forwarded
+to your @berkeley.edu student account, and if desired, you can also send email
+from these addresses by following
+[these instructions](https://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/docs/services/vhost/mail/gmail/).
+
+Your custom email addresses can be easily managed online, without having to
+come to OCF staff hours. For more information, visit our
+[mail hosting documentation](https://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/docs/services/vhost/mail/).
+
+## Free Computing and File Storage
+
+Like any other account, group accounts allow you to sign into OCF computers,
+SSH into our account server, and store up to 15 GB indefinitely. The main
+service which is not available to group accounts is free printing. For
+information about other services available to all accounts, such as free
+computing and file storage, visit [our account page](LINK-GOES-HERE).
