I have been playing with my lap top and using the power point program to set up my show list and music. You can easily set up a slide show that has a whole list of tricks on one side and in the middle I am putting the name of the trick that I am doing and at the bottom of the page I put the name of my next trick. This way I know where I am in my program. Also you can insert the music you want played for that trick and have it automatically set the volume for you. I will set this off to the side some where that I can see it, but not the audience. You can even get an air click that plugs into the USB port and you can remotely control the power point system . Anyone else using this system? I would like your input.
Thanks Mark

Hello.

If you have a remote it's better to use Winamp. Some tricks:

- Setup a big font in the playlist so you can see the scene's names very big.
- Install a plugin to see in BIGGER LETTERS the current theme.
- Setup Winamp to stop after every song.
- Set individually the volume for every track (yes, it's possible)

And you have a more functional system and easy to setup than POWERPOINT.

Or invest more money to have a little more prestations and buy a system from:
