Do you wish me to see what they are looking for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chingford Posted September 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2006 Might seem an obvious answer but connecting a projector to the laptop is the way to go. Check out Dabs website. There's plenty of free software which will show the pics as a slideshow, check out this TUCOWS page. It IS an obvious answwer but thanks... cos I'd honestly no thought of that. Sadly my current projector's no good for this digital stuff and the Dabs website intimates £399.00 for a newbie! I was hoping for some dead obvious wee (CHEAP!) gizmo that everyone on earth except me was aware of... And I THINK I'D BE FINE WITH THE SOFTWARE, TA.

It's whatever interfaces with her laptop and the wall (or screen) that I need to sort out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
