Every conference room could have a device to facilitate presentation.

What device is going to have my PowerPoint slides, my IDE, my logged in AWS account, etc and everything else I need for demos?

Where I work, every conference room in every corporate office has a TV and a dongle that you can plug in via either HDMI or USB C.

Any thin client would do.
I’m going to have a “thin client” with my exact setup and my IDE, PowerPoint slides etc? Are you proposing that I work from a thin client? What happens when I’m working from home?
It's only for meeting rooms.
So in a meeting, is this person who is presenting going to copy everything they need from their desktop? If it’s a group meeting will no one else have their computers with them?
1. I don't think you understand what a thin client is.

2. I have found that face-to-face meetings where other people bring their laptops usually means that they get distracted and don't participate.
