I just downloaded the spec sheet for a Kodak overhead projector, and all the units are in SI. I also recently returned from a trade show where the decorating company rented display counters that were described as 2m long and 42" tall. Nobody seemed bothered by the nuttiness of using two different measurement systems, but also no one was asking how long 2m is "in real feet." Some progress is being made, if slowly.
