I'm already at the airport, checked-in and just waiting for my flight.

have a good trip!

I owned BENQ PE7700. The first few version firmware had a problem where the fan is not spinning fast enough causing the lamp to burn at around 500 hours. But later firmware update had solved the problem. After sales service previously is quite OK. I burn my lamp and the service center in Penang swap a new lamp and update the firmware without any additional charge. Own it for 3 years + with currently clocking around 1400 hours and still working fine.

how much was the lamp?

since the service centre in PG, so it's quite ok to get benq then I guess..

Which one? PE7700 lamp without housing is around USD 230 and W6000 is USD 299.
