Best thing to do is to output the slide show to a DVD that can be played with anything that can attach to a projector, whether it be an off the shelf DVD player, Mac OS X or Windows laptop with a DVD drive in it. iMovie and iPhoto work together with iDVD to master the DVD. You can use iTunes to integrate music or other sound into the iMovie project, or import them directly. Of course, if you're getting fancy about it, there are more sophisticated tools available like Final Cut Express, etc. Godfrey -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
