    When it came time to buy a new display device, it was either a 51" HDTV or a projector and a screen (final cost was similar). Can't beat the 85+" of a projector, even though its only 480p Still looks better than any HDTV i've seen when it comes to watching movies (with the except of an 80" plasma TV i saw at circuit city once, but hey, i spent less than 1/10th of the price of that TV!).

    Not a thing wrong with that. It will make a great bedroom set when you're ready to upgrade. I plan on a 480p projector for my bedroom (when I finally own one).

    I already use it in my bedroom But by the time i get a new one I'll probably have my own house (3-4 years) and then i'll be able to assemble a 2.35:1 constant height setup (i hope..)
