[QUOTE="Los Lover, post: 27459"] Precisely the myth that stops people buying this/my set-up.... which is why I got my 4000 hour bulb dlp projector for 900 bucks!! There is a thing called throw ratio....and zoom lens, focus etc that means you can get a big image in small space. I have an entertainment room that was once a small outside deck...it has been built over and has windows etc......It is very small - probably four1/2-five metres long and three metres wide - Max. Yet I happily watch movies and games on jumbo bean bags and play/watch with an image that is 1.5 metres wide and 1.3 metres high...This is with the surround sound and 32 inch comfortably behind us against the wall for watching normal tv and stuff - with a simple rotation of the bean bags and blow-up furniture. It is the bomb. My pc is in my bedroom adjacent - and it is a piece of ****....came free with laptop...but!!!! It is perfectly adeqaute... So I ask you - 1400 dollar computer with graphics cards and chips etc etc etc etc etc........ or - Projector screen, projector, Bean bag couches, lava lamps - Blue for blue controller side and red for red controller side (yep!!), bean footstools etc......for less than 1400 dollars....maybe 1250 all up. I say it's a no-brainer.......and I'll be reminded of that fact when I watch the Lions v All Blacks on it on Saturday - have s-video cable for Sky Digital and component to projector connections for gaming..... F**k graphics cards - hahahha!!! Projectors are one of those great gems that too many have not yet discovered. Keep them healthy and they will serve you as long as a tv (with replacement bulbs every three or four years of course).....about 5 cents an hour mine works out to.
