  One of the challenges I face quite often in my ProVideo testing lab is the ever changing hardware that arrives on a regular basis. While it sounds awesome (let’s be honest – it is…) , it’s also a challenge  – as we all know in the real world we need to keep those older high dollar investments up and running as long as we can.
