In such cases, it may be requested to bring a PDF version of the
presentation.  Evince require less resources and the result will 
be the same.

Anyway, other years some speakers has asked a friend or another
developer. I'm sure it can be arranged.  The only (funny) problem 
is to deal with other keyboards layout.

But it shouldn't be a laptop after all. Probably the simplest 
solution is having a desktop computer in every room.
