WavePlace and other Haiti Education efforts keep asking me the same
thing, in NYC and elsewhere--who can answer:<br>
How can in-classroom (and out-of-classroom?!) cheap portable overhead
projectors be rigged to XOs -- by hook or by crook -- <i>and what
models/arrangements are best?</i><br>
<br>
Aside from this wonderful home-made prototype, that unfortunately
overheats, what's achievable?<br>

<br>
Is the following (<i>control/display your XO-computer from a non-XO PC
or Mac or Linux box</i>) the most viable approach?<br>

<br>
Could hacking an on-board VGA port realistic for XO-1's (<i>to an
external VGA monitor or projector</i>) be made into something more than
a gimmick -- with broad(er) classroom potential?<br>
Even if presumably impossible with upcoming XO-1.5 laptops?<br>

What software approaches & preferred Sugar Activities make
kids/teachers project presentations shine? EG. check out Walter
Bender's presentation here using TurtleArt:<br>

<b>Appeal for Past Experiences/Promising Approaches:</b><br>
Please reply to the <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:olpc-haiti@laptop.org">olpc-haiti@laptop.org</a> mailing list, digging deeper
than the above mostly-2008 pages wherever we can expand "PowerPoint"
(and hopefully far superior) options for Haitian
classrooms/projects/teachers...THX<br>
