SmartSource Computer & Audio Visual Rentals Gold Sponsor and Official Supplier for IAEE’s Expo! Expo! 2011 Annual Meeting & Exhibition
Hauppauge, New York (PRWEB) December 07, 2011
SmartSource Computer & Audio Visual Rentals (Hauppauge, NY, http://www.smartsourcerentals.com), one of the nation’s leading providers of computer, audio visual (AV) and trade show technology rentals and services, is revving up for Expo! Expo! 2011 – the Annual Meeting of the International Association of Exhibitions and Events (IAEE) (http://www.iaee.com/events–education/expo-expo-annual-meeting/). The company is the Gold Sponsor and Official Supplier for what is widely-recognized as one of the most important events for the worldwide association and meeting industry. Dubbed by IAEE as “the industry’s must-attend face-to-face event,” the event will take place on December 7, 2011, at the Las Vegas Convention Center where hundreds of suppliers will be exhibiting products and services designed to meet the association and meeting industry’s needs. Among the solutions SmartSource will be showcasing at Expo! Expo! is its SmartCharge™ Kiosk, a Mobile Device Charging Station.
According to SmartSource President and CEO Mike McClernon,“Expo! Expo! is one of the meeting industry’s most dynamic and exciting shows. We look forward to it every year for the educational programs and valuable networking opportunities. We also consider it to be one of the most effective venues for launching new solutions such as our SmartCharge Kiosk.”
The SmartCharge Kiosk addresses the pervasive need of tradeshow attendees to stay connected with their offices during their tradeshow participation. Today, that requires relying on their mobile devices. If their batteries run out, they need an easy and reliable resource to charge their batteries, which is where the SmartCharge Kiosk comes in.
Compatible with 95% of mobile phones and portable devices, the SmartCharge Kiosk can be integrated right into exhibitors’ booth designs. Beyond its battery charging function, it offers a great platform for target marketing. Exhibitors can use the SmartCharge Kiosk to deliver customized messages to a captive audience in a memorable format that creates and drives word- of-mouth traffic. It also serves as an effective catalyst to stimulate conversations between exhibitors’ staff and potential customers while they are using the kiosk to charge their mobile devices.
For meeting planners, the SmartCharge Kiosk fills a vital need, while offering outstanding sponsorship opportunities, and giving exhibitors a way to target market right on the exhibit floor.
In addition to its target marketing application, the SmartCharge Kiosk is ideal for digital signage, document libraries, web applications, flight boards, video, sales presentations, live data feeds and product demonstrations. Its features include 7-12 minute average viewing time and the ability to support traditional branding with digital signage flexibility. The kiosk uses less power than a standard 100 watt light bulb.
SmartSource Computer & Audio Visual Rentals is recognized for having the most comprehensive range of event technology services in the meetings industry. In addition to its SmartCharge Kiosk, the company’s event technologies include “green” solutions ranging from digital signage and digital document libraries to digital attendee tracking, as well as extensive audio-visual production, computer technology and lead retrieval offerings.
As evidence of its leadership in the event/meetings category, SmartSource is the official computer and audio-visual technology provider for over 300 trade shows annually.

Computer Support Company Unveils 24×7 Round-The-Clock System Monitoring
Computer Support Company Unveils 24×7 Round-The-Clock System Monitoring
Bossier City, LA (PRWEB) January 04, 2012
My Tech Team, a genuine American IT success story, is beginning 2012 with a bang – by bringing an unparallelled continuous computer support tool online for all of its small business and home computing clients.
The new 24×7 Round-The-Clock Monitoring system simplifies the idea of computer support. Clients critical systems are remotely checked on in automated five or fifteen minute cycles. If a problem is detected, a direct message is immediately sent to a My Tech Team troubleshooter detailing the exact nature of the issue so that he or she can call the customer to take specific action to resolve the issue. No input is required from the client and the problem can be fixed quickly with a minimum of disruption to them.
My Tech Team operates an electronic ‘WallChart’ which maps the status of clients systems in real time so problems are identified, tracked and concluded in plain sight and all team members can view the live situation at a glance rather than having to search through files, or even worse, waiting until the operator dealing with the issue is back on duty.
In every cycle, the Monitoring system will automatically:-
Check that the workstation or server is up and running.
Check that it can connect to the Internet.
Check any or all Windows® Services, vital components of the system’s operating system.
Ping various network devices or remote offices that are required to ensure they are available.
Check TCP ports on the network, on other networks or at the ISP. If any of these ports are failing to respond, the user may be unable to connect and do their job.
Check disk space to ensure it’s below a set threshold.
Check hard drive devices to ensure that all disks are functioning properly and data is safe.
Check for unauthorized log in attempts and determines whether someone has been trying to hack into a client’s systems.
Check critical event log entries (such as hardware and software failures) and spots other potential issues.
24×7 Round-The-Clock Monitoring is just one of a series of benefits available through My Tech Team’s affordable monthly packages. Every client receives their unlimited expert computer support, connected/mobile device support, ongoing maintenance with tune-ups and labor coverage. Clients with the Pro and Premium package also receive advanced virus protection whilst 24×7 Round-The-Clock Monitoring is part of the Premium package.
Depending on a client’s changing needs or situation, customers can sign up to whichever package they require and will immediately receive those benefits.
24×7 Monitoring is the latest innovation from My Tech Team who also provides a free online tech support plan as well as the security of labor coverage, which acts similar to an online warranty. Their clients already enjoy the best IT support, advice and peace of mind available remotely, and now can feel even more secure in the services My Tech Team provides – 24×7!

“Angela has been a tireless and committed advocate for developing products and services that add more value to membership,” said Sorel Reisman, 2011 IEEE Computer Society president. “We are living in a time when technology is informing all aspects of our lives. Under Angela’s direction, the Computer Society has made tremendous gains in expanding its current offerings, launching new benefits, and forging ahead with planning on future initiatives reflecting how computing professionals make use of current technologies.”
Burgess, an IEEE employee for 25 years, was recognized “for outstanding leadership in improving IEEE Computer Society cooperation and reintegration with IEEE and (the Technical Activities Board) and successfully transforming operations, improving the financial strength of the Society.”
Prior to being named executive director, Burgess served as publisher for six years. She holds a bachelor of science degree from Iowa State University and an executive master of business administration (MBA) from the Peter F. Drucker School of Management, Claremont Graduate University.

Computer History Pioneers Congregate on November 3-4 at Vintage Computer Festival Event
Computer History Pioneers Congregate on November 3-4 at Vintage Computer Festival Event
Livermore, CA (PRWEB) October 31, 2007
The Vintage Computer Festival, a yearly event that celebrates computers and their history, is being held on November 3-4 at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California.
Anticipation is building for what is expected to be the biggest and most well-attended event since the Festival’s founding ten years ago. Celebrated once a year in Silicon Valley, as well as three other locations worldwide, the Vintage Computer Festival is the largest and most prestigious event of its kind, featuring a lecture series, an exhibition of working vintage and antique computers, and a marketplace for traders to buy and sell vintage computers. Collectors from around the world attend this event, which was founded in 1997. The Festival also recognizes its own history this year as it marks its tenth anniversary.
This year, attendees will be treated to several historical figures in the computer industry, including Lee Felsenstein (designer of the classic Osborne 1, one of the first portable computers, and the SOL-20, one of the first personal computers), Al Hoagland (designer of the first commercial disk drive), legendary MIT proto-hackers Bill Gosper Steve Russell (author of the first videogame, Spacewar!), Wesley Clark (not the general, but the inventor of the first transistorized computer in the US) and prolific computer book author Lance Leventhal, who wrote dozens of computer self-help books throughout the 1970s and 1980s.
One of the keynote sessions at the Festival this year is a panel featuring the engineers who in the early 1960s designed the LINC (Laboratory INstrumentation Computer), which was a revolutionar computer design that some consider to be the first “personal computer”.
The Festival also features a marketplace for collectors to buy, sell and trade vintage computers. There is also a screening of documentaries and films on both days of the event that have vintage computing or vintage technology themes. Some of the filmmakers will be present to talk about their work and give introductions to their films. There will also be an abstract artist (Christine Finn) on site throughout the event constructing a collaborative artwork based on discarded technology, culminating at a talk she will give on the piece at 3:00pm on Sunday.
The Computer History Museum is an ideal location for the Festival as it allows attendees the opportunity to tour the Museum’s collection while also attending the lectures and exhibits organized by the VCF. Tours of the Museum’s collection will be given throughout the afternoon on each day of the Festival. Special theme tours during the weekend will include “A Brief History of the Internet” and “The History of Video Games”, which are both guided by Museum docents. There will also be live demonstrations of ancient mainframe computers that have been painstakingly restored to working condition, including an IBM 1401 mainframe circa 1960 and a Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) PDP-1 minicomputer circa 1961 running Spacewar!, the first ever videogame, written in 1962. The game’s author, Steve Russell, will also be speaking at the Festival.
The Computer History Museum is located at 1401 North Shoreline Blvd. in Mountain View, California, just off highway 101. The Vintage Computer Festival opens at 9:30am each day, with first sessions beginning at 10:00am and the exhibition and marketplace opening at 2:00pm each day. The film festival runs from 11:00am to 6:00pm each day. The Festival officially ends
at 6:00pm on Sunday.
Complete event information including admission, directions to the venue and the event schedule can be found on the VCF website:
http://www.vintage.org/2007/main/
