Lots of good stuff for integrators today — Mark Coxon thinks AV generalists (at least as companies) are dead, with the era of hang and bang over. He says that to survive is to specialize. Let us know if you agree with him. We also have expert advice on huddle rooms — one column with best practices for huddle room collaboration and another on the role of AV integrators in huddle space design. The biggest product news right now is that Sharp is shipping the 8K display that it introduced this past year. Has anyone ordered one yet?

Meanwhile, our office is in North Carolina — in Chapel Hill, which is in the middle of the state, so not the coast. We’re still not sure if Hurricane Florence is coming for us or not… but if you haven’t heard from us by Monday, send a boat.
