The three new models include Epson’s first-ever laser projector (pictured), which projects up to 300-inch images in Full HD 1080p and provides 4,500 lumens of brightness.

Called Unified Remote Monitoring and Management, the new technology is designed to let MSPs handle server, PC, smartphone, tablet, network, IoT, cloud management, and more through a single interface.

According to North American channel chief Rob Cato (pictured), easier subscription-priced purchasing and offerings for partners that emphasize services over hardware are among the company’s priorities for the months ahead.

They include a refreshed edition of the 13-inch ThinkBook Plus Gen 2 i (pictured) with an expanded exterior e-ink display, plus features like Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos for improved online conferencing.

The deal will add deep network traffic visibility and analysis to the vendor’s existing detection and response capabilities, according to CEO Kyle Hanslovan (pictured).

Intel says the business-ready mobile chips, which are part of the 10nm Tiger Lake family launched last September, deliver nearly 20% better overall app performance and 35% better videoconferencing performance, plus enhanced hardware-level security.

Announced today at CES 2021, the four laptops and 2-in-1s, which include the thinnest ThinkPad ever made (pictured), come with Dolby video, audio, and voice features for better videoconferencing, plus 5G-ready options.

Sharing we like. Oversharing, not so much. And sometimes the kindest thing you can do for others is close up that kimono of yours. Or so say Matt, Rich, and their guest host, cloud consultant and entrepreneur Jamison West. They also have some things to say about SolarWinds MSP’s soon-to-be new name and the security landscape in 2021, not to mention cloud management, a topic they discuss with RMM pioneer and now cloud identity management CEO Peter Sandiford, of Zerotek.

Announced ahead of next week’s CES conference, the forthcoming hardware arrives at a time when work-from-home computing, remote learning, and other newly pervasive use cases are driving demand for flexible products optimized for videoconferencing.

2021 is here, and not a moment too soon. To celebrate that happy occasion, we invited 22 (count ’em) of our guest hosts from 2020 back on the show for a series of group chats about top IT industry story lines from last year and predictions for next year, plus the latest can’t-miss reading recommendations from the ChannelPro Book Club. Heck, we even managed to get in a super fun round of museum picks from five former co-hosts, and a bonus pick from Matt that he’s been saving up for weeks.
