Did you mean a monitor or a projector? If a monitor, what is the screen
size of the one you are talking about?

Joe, a lot of laptops now come with both hdmi and VGA and of course USB. A
lot of projectors also support these technologies so as long as you have
the ports, you should be able to leverage them to do why you suggest.

FYI, Lenovo makes a great USB powered monitor that is great for the road
warriors. $160 on Amazon. :) Now that I have one, I won't be able to let it
go.

Thanks to Jason Bess for that.

What would be cool is if there was a way (maybe there is already by
leveraging the same technology as the docking device) to do an extended
display while projecting from two projectors, when demoing stuff from 2
different apps working with each other without minimizing either one..

The wide format projectors are starting to catch on.  It will probably be a
little while before it is the norm though.



Also in the works are laser projectors :)  Lasers are cool!  I miss running
the YAG and C02 http://www.weldmac.com/laser-welding.html.  Admittedly you
don't see the pretty beams with these but it is way cool to use light to
cut metal!

Sadly the resolution for the Fairmont PSAV services is 1280 X 800.



Get used to it, PSAV bought out their main competitor and are now something
silly like 80%+ of the market.



That is why people like me go “GACK, we could buy that TV and raffle it off
for less”.

That’s the nice thing about the 1920x1080 resolution! Fits most new
standard televisions..



You don’t usually get projectors to match that but there are a few
reasonably priced ones now in the market that you can get on that
resolution..

Thanks for the reminder Rick.



I am told that the health club has been totally rebuilt with all new
equipment.



My AV contract doesn’t tell me resolution of the projectors so I have asked
them for it.

My laptop is also 1920X1080 deliberately so that native resolution is
perfect for my 55” LCD TV screen.

11 days to go, 6 before I am there getting ready

It's a full gym, treadmills, bikes, etc.  There were many non-functional or
dysfunctional machines last year, something Dan said he mentioned to the
hotel.

Also, if you join the Fairmont President's club (free), they will loan you
workout gear, including shoes.

Does anyone know what kind of work out equipment they have at the hotel?
I’m not asking for me… someone asked me and shamefully… I have no idea…

On 1920x1080 you know you do not need an external monitor. It’s a luxury if
you have it.



But lower than that I have always had the need for an extended monitor. Its
hard to develop without one.. At least I feel so..



Or maybe its just that I need a vision check J

Although it works well to demonstrate that you can develop at a lower
resolution and without an extra monitor :)

Was a typo. I meant 1920x1080..



My Personal laptop is that resolution and it means I have to adjust to a
smaller resolution when displaying it on a smaller resolution screen. While
that’s generally OK most of the time, it gets to be a little more of an
inconvenience when demonstrating stuff from the Dev Studio which is a Real
Estate hungry beast..

Thanks, Joe – I love a guy who gives specific technical detail.  ;)



I don’t actually recall the resolution of my laptop, but can check that
this weekend when I start practicing my presentation.  I don’t *think* it’s
1950 x 1080.

The way the podium is setup usually, the podium is already wired to a
projector and vocal devices like a mic etc. They do provide button mikes in
most halls. So unless you have a specific need to bring in your projector
(higher resolution than what is provided) then there is no need for you to
bring one. The one they provide does not have a 1950x1080 resolution but a
step or two lower than that.



Would be nice to have 1950x1080 projectors for those presenting stuff from
the dev studio – for obvious reasons...

Already planning on that one.  Between my need to present and my need to
connect in to our network while we’re gone and check a few things, I can’t
see coming to WWRUG without a laptop.  But maybe you can see where
schlepping in a laptop and projector as well as clothes and toiletries for
5 days starts to look a bit daunting and why I might be thinking about how
to lighten the load?



But I do appreciate the response - it’s nice to know I’m not ignored.  J
