Actually, it's the projector from one of the board-rooms here at
Afilias. We have standing permission to bring it to TLUG meetings.
However, if it gets broken in the process, Chris and I are on the hook
for repairing or replacing it. In which case we'd be passing a hat. :)

Speaking of tutorials, I bet that Chris could be convinced to give a
talk on the inner workings of slony (the async postgres replication
system). I could do one about running postgres in highly available
production environments (hardware sizing and selection, resource
allocation, operations techniques & procedures, etc).
