I don't care about slides, anyway. I had enough fun in university teaching to students with a blackboard to not fear it.

Turns out the 770 room has projector and a flat screen. This year with Anna-Marja the organization is delivering even beyond my (usually well informed) expectations.
About software versions in the laptops, yesterday they told us:
- Lovely Windows XP
- MS Office 2003 (Isn't this too old? I thought 2007 was the 'mainstream' version these days)
- Acrobat Reader 9
- IExplorer 8
- They will install today the latest stable versions of Firefox and OpenOffice.org.

Thanks, this goes beyond expectations 
Acrobat Reader would be enough.
