-ClassroomBroadcast transmits the screen of the 'server' laptop to the screens of a number of 'client' laptops. Typically the teacher's laptop would be the server and the students' laptops the clients. ClassroomBroadcast is a low cost alternative to using a data projector. ClassroomBroadcast runs on the server laptop and a VNC client such as [http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/tigervnc/index.php?title=Main_Page TigerVNC] runs on the client laptops.
