<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:14px;">I would like to run WRF at home for my own research purposes using computer workstation (HP, DELL or SONY).</span></span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:14px;">I'm sure there is an experience among us to run WRF at workstation with 2 or more cores.</span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:14px;">I would like to ask to share your experience with me, which computer workstations are most</span></span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:14px;">appropriate to install and to run WRF regarding an interface and a price of workstation.</span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:14px;">Thanks in advance,</span></span></div>
