Would there be any way to be able to set-up and configure the
machines on our end, and to "register" them into the auto-testers
once they are ready to go?
It feels unfair that even if the machine is in my home, that it's
still you who has to maintain it. In particular, I imagine you'd
be powerless to do much of anything when you can't remote into
the machine...
