"I believe in limited government, and the 20th century has been the century of government. The data is uniform. The government has failed at every single task it has set out to do, with the exception of waging war."

![]() Why don't they have this kind of projector in conference rooms? One particularly nifty aspect of this device was that people who stood before it cast no shadow, despite the fact that it seemed to radiate from a single device in the middle of the room. You could interact with it (change the content) by writing directly on the wall of the room. Teachers from the old school might appreciate being able to write directly on the "slide" and have it saved automatically for the next time they gave the lecture.
I wonder if this sort of projector and screen might lend itself to extended work, as opposed to ordinary terminals, on which one is forced to scroll much more often.
I've seen various kinds of electronic whiteboards. I believe that some of them allow at least minimal interaction between the board and the application that projects images upon it. For example, you could press the pen upon a section of the screen to move ahead to the next page. Comment/Join this discussion ( 2 ) | RSS/XML | Blog This | Additional
