Hey guys.

What Hi Def Projector would you recommend for under $800. I sorta have a tight budget on the count I am oly 14.

What do you think of this one? Dose anyone know if it has a HDTV Compatibility of 1080i?

According to its user manual it can accept a 1080i signal thru a component to VGA cable/adapter. The user manual can be downloaded from here:

For this kind of projector I suggest a high contrast, low gain grey screen and turn off all your lights.

The Optoma is also a good alternative. It has pretty good specs for a home theater projector and has a built in DVD player. You can connect a game console using the component to VGA adaptor. If I had to choose b/w the two I'd get the Optoma.

According to the website it comes with a component to VGA adapter. Use this to connect the 360 to the projector and enjoy the high def picture.

It can't be ceiling mounted b/c of the built-in DVD player.
