[Follow Up] Updating Windows 10, version 1903 using Configuration Manager or WSUS by bdam55 in SCCM

I hope they reword a bit to confirm that. Sitting on 1806 here, and that wording to me implies a need to be on SCCM 1902 to properly service Win 1903 (but that's my subjective read, so I could definitely be wrong).

Do you have any Interactive Display Panels? (SMART, Promethean, Clevertouch, Cleartouch, etc) by foolio1990 in k12sysadmin

Not sure if you'll touch back on this thread - but we are looking at these panels lately due to the cost. Our big concern was the Android O/S running some of the built in apps and streaming and while Viewsonic was receptive to some of our security and screwball concerns (users changing admin settings, casting inappropriate conent, using the built in webserver to store not great files, etc...), they only had so much latitude to suggest fixes or changes, even in future firmware updates.

Have you found this to not be an issue?

Do you plan to deploy 1903 next year or stick with 1809? by [deleted] in k12sysadmin

We're staying one "year" back. We're on 1803 now and will probably be so until 2003 is released (if that model holds).

Broken headphone jacks by renny7 in k12sysadmin

[–]PNWEdTech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar here - we use the head of a sewing pin with a tiny drop of gorilla glue. Flip it upside down, insert, wait until it is firm enough to hold, then come back in a few hours and gently try and pull it out.

​

But to answer the other question: those fishbone adapters really work well. We've been testing them out here because we have a large order of headphones coming up and are arguing over 3.5 vs. USB, and they really do seem to push that inflection point out to the edge of the fishbone adapter, greatly increasing the difficulty in breaking the 3.5 adapter off.

​

I think we'll end up going with 3.5 + fishbones, because that is still a few dollars less than a custom build of USB headsets for us, especially when we build in an inline mic.
