But you can use a projector from Sugar without the need for any
additional drivers. If your computer doesn't not have a VGA connector,
e.g., if you are using the OLPC hardware, you can use vncserver to
replicate your display onto another computer attached to a projector.

Some of your application ideas sound introducing. If you could go into
a bit more detail, there may be a developer or two willing to tackle
some of them.
