Hi Andrew,

I have a 2meter HDMI cable that I bring along to each meeting. We have found that it is sufficient in length to do a demo if you do the presentation from the desk just underneath  the video projector.

The video projector has an HMDI input socket, and a maximum resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels.

At the main presenters desk in the classroom the cable feed is from a SVGA male connector to the SVGA input on the video projector which is OK for laptops doing slide shows, etc.

> How longer demo would people like
If there is also the demo of BeagleBone, then up to an hour for each presentation is fine with me.

cheers,
Ian.

Can do. How longer demo would people like, and anything people would like to see? Also, does the uni have HDMI so it can put its video up onto screen or will I need to make some kind to adapt to VGA?
