Post some pictures of the quality and stuff, because if it's good I'll go pick one up myself.

i don't have a camera to take a picture, but the picture is better than what I thought it would be, maybe even better if i had an actual projector screen. this is my first projector, and it seems to work really well for what i want, I don't have the money for one of those high dollar home theatre projector that is really "high" definition but for the price i paid for this, it does the job quite well, i would suggest this to anyone who doesn't really know much about projectors, this is a good one to start out with, or just save your money for something else, its whatever makes you happy

Absolutely positively yes to projector usage.  I use a NEC VT670 and its the best quality I've seen on a projector in a long time.  I love it soo much that I bought one for my dad on fathers day of this year.

Would this be better suited for gaming on.  It says it's 720p.

I've never owned a projector so I really don't know how to go about purchasing one or anything like that.

EDIT:Some spelling errors.

Of course that would be better... but it's also twice the price, so it damn well should be better  laugh.gif

Though for the price range in question I would have gone with an Infocus 4805 or similar model. Same price range but uses DLP as opposed to LCD so it's got a much better refresh rate (good for gaming) and better black levels (good for movies). LCD projectors are more geared towards business uses. There are some good Home Theater ones but they're typically expensive in comparison to comperable DLPs.

I have a low end DLP right now, I really don't like it (horrible black levels, not really HD) but I'm holding out for the price to drop on 1080p DLP projectors...
