This thing looks pretty decent, if you've got $3k to spare.

For that size, the price is not too bad really.. still not in my budget though
slightly off topic.. what is the better type screen for a big screen TV these days?...
CRT, TFT, Plasma .. or wait for Organic LED?We have enough youth - What we need is a fountain of smart!

Plasma: No way, they need loud cooling. TFT is coming. OLED too. I'd just wait, it gets so much better so fast, you'll be sorry in two years.

Yup. Plasma are really annoyingly loud. Especially when you have one of the fookers above your head in the office For a big screen at home, it might be worth considering projection...DM says: Crunch with Matrox Users@ClimatePrediction.net

I always fancied projection, but there are two major drawbacks:
1) I never heard one who's fan I could ignore
2) Bulbs are rather expensive and have apretty short life.
They certainly aren't something you'd use as a TV replacement - only for watching loud films perhapsFT.

Yeah, I suppose if you've got the space then CRTs are still best inch for the buckDM says: Crunch with Matrox Users@ClimatePrediction.net

I saw this projector demoed recently, and it really is sweet.. best DLP picture I've ever seen, and I've seen some expensive 3 chip Runcos that cost 5 times what this does that didn't look half as good. This Dwin looks almost as good as a $70,000 Runco three-CRT Projector, in fact, and it is also extremely quiet. I want one.

The OLEDs are still a too far off..

pardon me, that's check @ 1000 hours and reccomend replacement
if anything get a spare nothin worse than sitting down to watch that most anticipated flic and it goes dark
Yes Chuck I wouldn't doubt that the home brew units would be cheaper as they don't need to illuminate a huge screen."Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind." -- Dr. Seuss
