Use linux on a laptop and use xrandr to use projectors or external monitors? This is just a simple script that takes no arguments and does the right thing to toggle between (the actually very few useful) configurations. Attach this to a 'video toggle' key press (like Fn-F7 on thinkpads) and always have easy access of external video devices.
