Projectors for gaming?

[JDUK]

Thats a sweet looking picture Flack especialy without a screen. ive found the Sony VPL-CS5 LCD Projector SVGA Resolution 1800 Ansi Lumens for about the same price as the Tosh TLP in the UK ill hopefully be getting one soon (its so hard to find a good job as a student during sumer hols) damn i really didnt realise the bulbs where ~£250 a shot how many do you get through in a year 1 or 2 ? or more ?

The bulbs are supposed to last 2000 hours. If you use your projector 10 hours a week, that's about four years.

Some friends of mine bought those "projector plans" off of eBay but never ended up building them, I always wondered what they would look like.

So "Big Woody" is a scam? Then, why has its plans always been free?

Here's a link to one site hosting the "Big Woody" plans...

They work. They really do. But it's like trying to see the GBA screen with a candle.

Then there's the question of if you want a carboot sale TV in a plywood box sitting among your home entertainment system setup
