          The projector is quiet, light (as opposed to heavy), and bright. Hookup was a cinch. Just wish it had an RS-232 connector so we could use the remote from the audio/visual booth.

          we use this projector several times a week several hours at a time, great color, great for streaming live conferences online,and it is replacing our old projector that had bulbs that cost more than this one total. That's a no brainer when it comes to deals.
