Late last year about thirty-five digital signage screens were installed in each Carrefour Switzerland super-store. According to an insider, the most costly component of the project was the wiring of the network. Cables were installed from each screen to the media-players and then from the media-player to the central computing system.

The Public Computing answer to avoid this pitfall is the use of Q5 screens with integrated computer and WiFi capability. The Q5 units can be connected to the wireless network and installation can be done at a fraction of the total cost.

For the best possible performance, Public Computing now offers as upgrade the Q5 with low-power Intel® Core™ 2 Duo 4M processor at 2.2GHz and 945GM chipset. This upgrade includes the Intel® extreme GMA X3100 for enhanced video performance as well as 2GB of Memory.
