Since I had not used the equipment before, I arrive 45 minutes early,
but even after the board meeting there was no equipment to set up on
yet so I could not test anything. I may be wrong about what Thad is
asking, but to me presentations will go much smoother if people know
a better way to present things. Again, I think a PowerPoint
presentation would have worked much better than trying to show images
by themselves.
