One reason you dont see everyone going this rout is because you will need a very dark room as any other light will degrade the picture. Another reason is that 1080p projectors cost a lot right now but that will change in the next couple of years. Projectors are also a bit harder to set up
because you have to take room dimension and viewing distance in consideration more than with a tv. Personally when my 52inch lcd projection dies I'm going with a projector and a smaller lcd for normal daytime viewing. 100 inch plus screen would be awesome in high-def.

Ive got a really good projector but like post above, you need a dark room, if any light comes into the room you can barely see it

i am looking into getting a projector and i heard that light really doesnt matter as much as the lumen rating. I heard that the higher the lumens the better the quality in light. does this hold any truth? also how does a 1080p projector stack up against a 1080p tv? thanks in advance.
