@GreyCloud We've uploaded my 101 Tips cheat sheet to this post. See above. The A/V equipment was optimized to record powerpoint slides at 20pt, and there was no way i could crank up the Environment Font that high (and much less do 101 demos). So, I debated (even up to the last second) what resolution to use, but finally i decided to optimize for the in-house audience so that they could all get a copy of the book.

 

Enjoy!
