While we're at it, I'd like to remind that these impressive multi- screen setups, which we (the respective booth crews) have been proud to present on various FSweekend and LinuxTag shows over the past four (!) years - in continuously increasing size - would have been completely impossible without the firm belief and the work of those who initially made FlightGear-on-OpenSceneGraph actually happen. Many thanks, guys !! > - The end challenge of all our booth members trying to distract me > while performing an aircraft carrier landing (I'll leave it up to > your own assesment as to whether I failed or whether they failed.

Just to add a few more details: > Not only did it draw a lot of > people to our booth who wanted to check it out, handing out 3D glasses > also worked as an extremely good vehicle to start a conversation with > people. Some visitors must have liked what they saw so much, that they probably forgot to remove the 3D glasses from their nose when leaving the booth. That way five pairs of my 3D glasses found a new home. I hope, they take this as an oppertunity to uninstall MSFS and only use FlightGear from now on! > > Some assorted highlights include: [..] > > - Some people just not believing that a single machine could drive 10 > monitors and actively checking where all the monitor cables actually went > to. There was actually one guy who thought we were cheating and moved all around our installation to find a hidden computer somewhere. He even went down to his knees, crawled hither and thither and took pictures from the machine from nearly every angle. He traced the monitor cables, counted the DVI connectors and still suspected two computers within the big chassis. I had to open the cabinet for him which I think finally convinced him.
