SFO Boardroom Display Upgrade
*To reduce room start-up and shut-down times, bring the conference room up to Mozilla's latest AV standards, and help improve seamless conferencing - the SFO Boardroom displays have been upgraded. Two 90" displays (yes, two 90 inch displays) have been added as a replacement to the single projector w/ drop down screen. Next time you are in SFO, book out the Boardroom and let us know what you think of the upgrade!
