It really is exquisite. But what the devil is it?
Something that would have made me slam on the brakes and run out of the car. Quite nice though, I just wouldn't want to see it while I was driving down the highway!

Rumor has it that a few of our screens will be replaced by the end of the year, to make room for silver screens for 3-D movies (this is what I heard. I don't know jack about screens and what can or cannot be shown 3-D via DLP. I'm sure someone will have a comment about this [Big Grin] ) So if that happens, I'm just going to take another chunk out of one.

I did notice the neighbors behind me have a nice white garage a few feet behind my house that one could project a movie on.....

Allison: could you get hold of a slightly shorter lens? From your pic I'm guessing your projector came with the standard issue 50mm one, designed for classroom use. With a shorter throw, the picture is a bit small. I bought a 25mm lens for my Eiki NT-1 for £30 on Ebay a few years ago, and it gives me a picture about 2 metres across in my living room. Dunno what they'd go for in your part of the world, though - they might be quite sort after by home theatre buffs and therefore on the pricey side.

Joe's cat will run more reliably than those Pott's 5 deck platters.
I've seen numerous 16mm projectors for sale around here over the years but none of these were the Bell & Howell, but some other off-brand that the local school system had used. I was never tempted to buy one as I suspected they were junk.
Was that a robotic version of that "Hello Kitty" creature thing I see on key chains and kid purses and what-not? Is there a robotic version of that rude rabbit I see on T-shirts?

Do you guys take pride in being this boring in a random pictures thread? Perhaps pictures of projectors should be banned from this thread as a "boring" repellent.

Here are some more projectors, just for Joe.

(Now let's see which photo gets more comments--the girl or the projectors!)
