I have a client who needs to conduct CD-based demonstrations for his clients at their offices. We have discussed using a good lightweight notebook and a DLP projector. Now, the client is entertaining the idea of using a 17″ notebook.
While I understand the desire to minimize the number of pieces of equipment necessary to accomplish the task, I am concerned that a 17″ notebook might have too many limitations. Can anyone tell me how many people can confortably crowd around a 17″ notebook and clearly observe a CD demonstration? My perception is that a 14″ or 15″ notebook would probably accommodate the same number of people – perhaps three – as the larger notebook.
Any experience with a 17″ notebook with respect to shared viewing will be appreciated.
