Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro with Intel 11th Gen i7 CPU & NVIDIA MX450 dGPU Spottededit
Lenovo seems on track to upgrade its Yoga Slim lineup with Intel’s upcoming Tiger Lake CPUs and NVIDIA’s MX450 discrete GPUs.

Scaling virtual desktops with HCIedit
At a time of crisis, when more and more employees are logging in from remote locations, enterprises are finding virtual desktops or Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) to be a great fit. However, as the number of remote workers increase rapidly, enterprises are finding it challenging to scale VDI cost effectively. As VDI usage grows, there is increased pressure on IT to have a realtime view into every aspect of infrastructure, as rise in VDI usage requires RAM, compute and storage to scale simultaneously. This is not cost effective as the increased number of virtual desktops mean a proportionate increase in costs in management, deployment, user onboarding and training.
