Hi,
thanks for the tips. I should have put a little more emphasis on the need for
the evaluation side. That's an important concern. None of the sources I listed
have much in the way of comparative review. I'm somewhat aware of prices below
$1000, in particular the InFocus X2. My difficulty has been trying to sort out
DLP from LCD, XVGA vs SVGA, ratio of this to that, and all the other features
these devices possess. I tooks a big step towards that by Googling on "advice"
rather than "review" when using "multimedia projectors". Here's a site that is
pretty fair on advice
<http://projector.lifetips.com/cat/59693/projector-lamp-tips/>. It looks like
it's for educators and even has a 800 help #. I also found a very good price for
the X2, and am mulling it over.
