Since the Coffee Shop was founded, many new display technologies have evolved and come into common usage. Some work rather better with our software that others, and we are updating the site to make it more appropriate across a wider range from a watch with a 1.5" screen to a public display screen of perhaps 250".  For Frequent Posters, I have put up a thread with illustrations of most of the options to help clarify them for you. - http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/29189

This is the first of two surveys - this one asks WHAT YOU ARE USING AT PRESENT.

Gosh, didn't see this one at all - I've never quite worked out why, but some topics just pass me by. If its of any use at this stage, I view the Coffee Shop on a desktop and on an iPad.
