Please start a new thread (e.g. don't reply to any message and then just 
change the subject) when you have a totally new subject to bring up.  It 
increases your likelihood of getting a response since more people will 
see your messages).

Anyways, to answer your question I use a laptop on the podium 
controlling the other machine by using VNC.  Both machines are connected 
via a wireless access point.  The advantage is that the presenter need 
not look back over his/her shoulder to see what's on the screen.
