Adding multiple machines with CSVDE

Is it possible to add multiple new computers to a domain using csvde? I have
a list of 30 pc's to do now, and who knows what will come down the road. I
can't find anything saying what the class would be for the value.

I have checked both of these before I posted. They don't say anything about
adding computers. I know how to do an import and export but don't know what
values I have to use for machines, such as object class and the like.

I generally use ldifde but I think that in csvde is te same, to export, as a
sample all computers, try the following:
csvde -f c:\computers.csv -r objectclass=computer
This will export the computers with all attributes associated, then you can
use the links provided before to export/import only the attributes that you
want to work with.
