Rharv, the lappy does (affirmative) have an HDMI port so we should be squattin' in your basic cotton.

Now, to sort out (oot in Canuck-speak) the weak WIFI signal in that EXACT spot, I'll be beside myself (what an opportunity to sing tight sibling harmony, aye wot?)

I watch the signal strength bars while drag racing powered wheelchairs with octogenarian chicks and it fluctuates badly. It may be the AC ducting sinking the WIFI signal, not sure.

Thanks for jumping in, Rharv.
