Hi,

A friend has asked me to find him a HD projector for around £1500

Can anyone help as I do not have a clue?

thanks in advance...

cheers!!!

can I have 2 specs pls

1 for a) projector, screen, mount and cabling and
2 b) just for the projector?

Like I said I dont have a clue I dont even know if option 1 is realistic and will get him a nice bit of kit??

Thats why I have broken it up a bit after your question...

Either way all help would be most appreciated...

cant seem to find it on that site....

is that everything he will need?

whats better?

Optoma HD72i or HD infocus in76??

Is that bang of buck? Will he be getting the best deal around for his money if he goes for either one of them?

Please advise

Thanks

can u guys clarify something pls:

i noticed your all asking about cabling does this mean you dont get cables with the projector?

if i go for just the screen then do I get cables?

whats the diff between lcd and plasma?

u speak about a mount? a mount for what exactly?

i cant seem to find any of the projectors or screens you are mentioning...

whats better? a projector or the screen?

pls pls pls help...

thanks for that very helpful indeed...

I guess he came to me becuz he thinks I know about this kinda thing - ALTHO I told him I dont...

However what you have just written re: projectors is a great start...

Can you do the same for screens as well?? A little explanation..

On a seperate note what is the diff between LCD and PLASMA screens?

Thanks a lot you guys are great

no u've misunderstood...

I meant tell me the diff between a LCD screen and a Plasma screen

Perhaps I am using the wrong terminalogy

Yes I have seen screen when used with projectors lol...

does anyone know of a good website that compares the features of a projector?

xirokx · 22 Jun 2006 at 03:40

A regular wall won't cut it so you need a proper screen

ahh he thinks it will?

technically why wont it?

thanks for your help so far most appreciated...

Just a small suggestion, but maybe you should have told your friend that you are not the person to help him with this job...(no rudeness intended)

None taken, its just a fantastic opportunity for me learn at the same time I guess

thanks for your help...
