The presentations are practiced and ready. Some animations take 20 seconds to download on a 4Mbps pipe. My server has a 1000 Mbps pipe into the cloud, but the MS Conference center may be older technology or slower. I will have the presentations on a USB flash drive and a CDrom; I will also have spares, a powered USB2 hub, cables, my own remote presenter, and other tools. However, I would like 5 minutes to test the setup in the auditorium so I know what I can use.

The new version of wydiwys.js intelligently autosizes to the screen, while preserving aspect ratio. It also preloads some of the images into the browser, making it change slides a little faster.
