Product placement
Proxmox: This is a virtualization management platform. It ACTS as the operating system for the cluster, allowing the user to manage virtual machines and containers. Its interface is operated and visible throughout the video. Removing it would change what happens in the video.
ThinkPad X1: This is a laptop computer. It APPEARS as the hardware on which Proxmox is installed. Removing it would not change what happens in the video, as the focus is on the software.
Intel vPro: This is a processor technology. It APPEARS as a sticker on the laptop. Removing it would not change what happens in the video.
