Its a full size, road side, billboard that runs streaming video - like
commercials or if you wanted,
live events.

There is a motion board that distributes the video to the billboard.
The computer connects via usb and a 25 pin dvi cable.
The motion board connects to the billboard via 10 pin speciality
power/data cable.

The system that is/was on the board had a some serious problems. The
company that put it up when out of business and their "software"
was actually a service. I acquired the board for nothing and Im
replacing the XPHome with Ubuntu and looking for software to
run the board.
