If you have powerpoint, open it up, open a slideshow, Press B

if you own m4l... there's a patch by R.Henke which does just that.

on a mac i would just dim all the way down (takes 2 sec until black), is that not possible on windows?

use one extension cord with on/off switch for your 3 monitors.

dunno if it works on win7 but would guess so...
(and if not here are some more to try: http://www.google.com/#hl=en&source=hp& ... 95ecf679eb)

I have a dedicated "make the screen go black" button at the bottom of my monitor
I'm pretty sure that most monitors have them.

...tell us more about this.."button".. oh great one..

I just wish there was a shorter name for it than "button which makes the screen go alternately black, or show an image".

I have the "pro" version, it enhances dynamic range and simulates analog decoupling.

yeah... but does it go 'click' ?

thanks all. Does this come with m4l or do you download it seperately ?

Could try a shotgun but that is a once only option.

yes it would expand them, they would be spread all over the wall.
