It's surprising how complex some of these systems are. Multiple monitors, multiple projectors that show different inputs, software to record it all for later learning.</div>

I had a friend call and ask to use my trailer to haul some furniture for his son going back to college. It's going to be interesting how this all unfolds.</div>

I work in IT at University of Iowa, so for me this work from home has been pretty much business as usual so I'm very lucky in that regard. I work closely with the folks that maintain the classrooms (due to podium technology) and they are equipping far more

2020 has been a shit-show of a year, plus it's an election year on top of it. I'll be so glad to put this year in the rear view mirror, things have got to get better....right?</div>
