Sounds like a nice, cheap alternative to renting A/V equipment, especially when the laptop they’re using is mine, for free. Well, in exchange for food and drink and possible networking opportunities of my own. 🙂

I have to remember to bring a handful of those Life of a One-Man IT Department business cards we made up for Gnomedex….
