That's a great suggestion John, and one that in fact I am in the process of doing. I will be purchasing a laptop by the month's end hopefully, for the express purpose of burning cds on the run and showing slideshows to clients immediately following their shoot. I am also aiming to purchase a data projector so that I can project their images as a slideshow at their wedding reception. I have many clients who are extremely excited about this concept and so, this is my "next cab off the rank" so to speak...
I hadn't even thought of the flexibility it would offer by plugging my monitor in and allowing them to view that way. In fact, when I do get my 19" monitor, I *will* already have a second monitor to do just that, namely the one that I am using right now! tan. ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Coyle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, January 03, 2004 5:40 PM Subject: Re: Photographic New Years Resolutions? > I guess if I wanted to minimise the weight and size of the kit, and maximise > the flexibility I would buy a laptop and a second monitor, which could be > plugged into it.
