Leonard:

B is preferable to A, but I'd rather see "networked computer" than
"computer in your network"... And if the network connection isn't
actually necessary, or if it can just be made part of the "requirements"
you mention, you could write:

C. You can run "ingest" jobs from any computer that meets
requirements.
