From the creators of Sound Forge and Vegas. Should be pretty interesting. If anyone wants info on it or questions you want me to fire at them for you, let me know now before I leave.

 

[BigDov]

Yes. One question, and one question only- pif plz?

 

[BigDov]

That's either one big laptop, or a bigass lan computer.

They sold their software divisions to Sony.

Well, did you manage to get ahold of a dozen or so of these for us to play with?

No, but I managed to get one for me to install into a conference room.

 

[Sarcasmo]

Cool, or no? Were you impressed?

 

[Sp`ange]

No, but I managed to get one for me to install into a conference room.

by "conference room", do you mean "living room"?

 

[theacoustician]

Cool, or no? Were you impressed?

Quite. It basically takes in a video stream, a image still stream (up to 5 fps), and a data stream and combines them on the fly to make a streaming conference/learning presentation. It's a hard product to sell or talk about unless you see it in person though. There are some demos on their site that kinda get the message across.

by "conference room", do you mean "living room"?

No, no point for one in there.

 

[Sp`ange]

No, no point for one in there.

puh-leez. I bet you could find one.

Nah, but anyone working at an educational facility *cough*bsinning*cough* should look at this box. Anyone doing heavy video conferences or presentations to remote locations over IP should also get a demo.

I wonder if I could find a use for one in litigation...
