We have had very good luck with the NEC 795 projector in Webster City as well. Good image and very easy to maintain. Mark Murphy

Subject: [info-tech] more standardization
We are trying to standardize on a projector to put in
classrooms.
* I have gotten opinions from some teachers around our
district, but for the most part, they aren't picky, they just want the
bulbs to last forever.
* It seems to me that 2 video inputs is a very nice
feature, for switching between computer and doc. cam or other source.
* A VGA video input is nice as well as Svideo (although
I've never seen it used) for DVD/VCR or video cameras
* What other features do you folks look at when
purchasing projectors? For the most part, they won't be mounted. Is
there a specific brand that bulbs are more reasonable on?
* Is anyone using wireless connections to projectors
successfully? We have a few, but the wireless network (internet)
connection is given up when connecting to the wireless proj. Teachers
don't like that.
* As always, price is a factor, but it seems that most
of these manufacturers are making money on the bulbs, warranties and not
the projector itself.
