I do not know if we'll have a demo booth available - will check with
Joel.  If so, a projector will likely be supplied by OGF or local
staff - I don't think we need more than a laptop.  I'd be happy to
offer mine as a fixed entry point, but I guess that swapping laptops
between demos should also be doable.  Let me know which way you
prefer.

In case we do not have a booth, I think that laptop swapping is the
simplest way - do you agree?

Best wishes, 

  Andre.
