Default Re: Get a projector

how important is having a dark room with regards to projectors?

[/ QUOTE ]

With the panasonic projector that I posted, not important at all. As long as sunlight is coming in from the side and not directly on to a wall that you are going to project on (though even then it may still be viewable), it's fine. The PTAX200U is the brightest projector for the money at 2000 lumens. You can find something with more lumens but then you won't get the contrast ratio/picture quality that this model offers. I'll try to post a daytime picture.

If you are really planning on getting a projector, get it from costco.com. You'll have 90 days to try it out and can return it without any hassles. Most other places offer a 14 day return policy and a restocking fee. Also, Costco adds 2 years on top of the 1 year manufacturer's warranty.
