Good point but depends on what type of presentation - if it's just a standard slide deck in OOo or S5 or similar then we have presentation laptops (IBM t42's that output [EMAIL PROTECTED]) that have been tested with 2 of the 3 projectors - the 3rd being the large rear projection beast for the big stage. And I realise I'm tempting fate here since getting projectors to work is as much luck and circumstance than skill, with any hardware and any OS. If a presenter needs to use their own laptop, or some other hardware to do a demo, then the setup time is unquantifiable.
