       1.  I have a laptop with wi fi.


       2.  Does the Peace Center NOT have cables with the projector? I 
used a Peace Center projector at the Sept. 15 Foreclosure Summit, and it 
came with cables.


       3.  I have not worked much with YouTube.  However, from my 
limited experience, I've had lots of problems with YouTube videos in 
real time, especially for something like this.  If you are trying to 
download it and play it via wi fi in real time, I would NOT expect it to 
go smoothly.  It would be best to download the video to a hard drive (or 
maybe a USB drive or CD) and play it from there.  With a typical DSL 
connection, it can easily take 3 hours to download the data for a 1.5 
hour video, and if a user clicks the wrong thing, it can restart from 
the beginning.  If you've watched it, it probably is some place on your 
hard drive.  However, I have not done this myself, so I don't know the 
details of how to do it.  I just know that it should be feasible unless 
there is some special copyright protection in YouTube and the operating 
system to prevent that.
