Using a projector with Windows 7
Hello,
I am absolutely new here. Not sure where to post this. My apologies if this is the wrong location.
I am in the market for Windows 7 laptop.
Main purpose is to connect to a projector to display song lyrics, video clips, movies, power point presentations and a pictorial slide show using Picasa.
Currently have one laptop with xp pro and one with xp home at this time.
Using a mechanical switch A / B switch to go back and forth between the laptops for display content to screen.
Tried using a Vista machine in conjunction with the xp home and found the Vista machine a real nuisance to use in this set up for switching between machines.
Question 1: How easily does Windows 7 work with a projector in this type of situation?
Question 2: I am using Picasa now and dragging the window over onto the projector and then click play for the slide show. Will Win 7 make it easier to get a program to display to the projector or another monitor?
Thank you in advance for your advice.
