Intel Summit: 5 Workplace Technologies Channel Partners Can Tap
Submitted by Lindsey O'Donnell on
Compute Stick
Intel also showed off its Compute Stick (pictured), which the company offers primarily through channel partners.
The $150 Compute Stick is a USB drive for HDTVs and monitors that can double as a low-powered Windows 8.1 PC. Compute sticks function well in environments that may not have enough space for desktops, so employees can instead utilize the gumstick-sized small form factor device as their computing device.
This year, Intel lifted the curtain on new renditions of the Compute Stick, this time with Intel's new, more powerful Core m3 and Core m5 Skylake processors.
These new Compute Sticks, which will be available in May, offer higher performance and a more powerful computing experience, Intel says.
