Hey guys,

For lack of funds for that 40" lcd we students dream of... I want a projector to hook up to my comp to play the usual games (COD4, TF2, Civ4 etc) on and watch movies on.

Few noobie projector questions:

1. Whats the quality of an 800x600 projector like the Infocus x6 or similar at around the 200-250 pound mark likely to be?

2. How massive a difference is projecting onto a red wall rather than a white / magnolia one? (Basically i have a rectangular university room, with one 'feature' wall thats red, but there is too much furniture to project onto the white walls) - and drilling holes for a pull down screen isn't an option. White sheet and some hooks possible though lol.

3. Which projector would you recommend for my budget?

Thanks guys. I can't use paint simply because I'm in rented University accomodation and they don't allow any changes to rooms. Think my best stopgap will be a nice flat sheet and some pins or even a huge sheet of paper, or like you said a blind of some description. Basically anything i can blue tack or temporarily stick rather than drilling holes / re decorating.
