who wants to help set up a computer to drive a public display?  a reliable,
low-power desktop machine that can auto-power-on is the bare minimum, and then
some remote-access software that can facilitate non-technical people with
updating the slideshow that it displays

this is an exciting Omni-wide infrastructure that we should enjoy!

Subject: Re: [omni-consensus] flat screen monitor for entrance hall

I would be willing to help with that, i love infrastructure like that.  I can
help install a computer that feeds images to it, and help people learn how to
update the images whether they're local or remotely.

I can also probably find a replacement TV screen for after the first one stops
working or disappears, i know where to get more.
