Thanks to our host Cover My Meds and Warner Moore for their hospitality.
There was more free pizza and beverages than we could eat.

The projector was a Dell M410HD.
It announced itself in my menu as 'Dell 32"'.
Its native resolution is 1280x800.

It had Moiré patterns due to digital keystone correction,
so automatic digital keystone correction was disabled,
then digital keystone correction was manually adjusted from 3 to 0.

Skinny dark text on white background washed out (became all white),
so contrast and brightness were adjusted to defaults of 50 and 50 respectively
from 100 and 44? respectively, then skinny dark text looked OK.

Maybe Otani for next meeting.
