I like it too.  but here's the thing.  I'm bringing my 15-inch digital
picture frame to do this job and I'm pretty sure videos don't work on
this one, although I could test and find out.

Although, what I'd realllllly like to do is rent a 42" inch plasma
screen so we can do slideshows and demos properly in the booth.   I had
one for the openSUSE SCALE booth and it totally rocked.  I'm trying to
find out a way to get my hands on one for CSUN since I really don't
think this 15" digital frame, nor the small monitor that comes with the
GNOME Booth kit are adequate for an accessibility conference.  

If we have a plasma tv, then I would gladly hook up my laptop to it and
display better content, including videos.
