Up Next: Matt Royer from Intel!

We are extremely happy to welcome Matt from Intel to talk about their new Intel Core vPro Processor module. Click through to the blog post to read up on the gory details, but the short version is this: the vPro chipset has an embedded web-services server that shares your onboard NIC and allows you to manage the hardware much like you can with the baseboard management controllers (BMC) in server-class systems. That"™s old news. The new news is that Intel released a PowerShell module that helps you to automate your vPro chips, and Matt will tell us all about it!
