I used Apple computers for many years and was very satisfied with them
other than the fact that they are a single source proprietary supplier.
Looking at Mac and comparing that system to M$'s poorly working
alleged system, I think the entire world would have been better off

slides look really nice, and you can click them ahead at your own pace,
or you co
the projector accepts the standard vga output on your laptop (if you have
one), then I am confused about the problem. If the projector accepts only
s-video or standard rca jacks, then I could see a problem directing your
video output to one of those interfaces whilst in Linux.>
