Projector is not obsolete. It needs a room with controllable ambient light to perform at its best. Hence, not many ppl could have the luxury of a dedicated room for projector. Some transformed their living halls to accommodate the projector by using black-out curtains.
A good projector can really output very high PQ. Moreover, projector has becomes more affordable in recent years, which is good for consumers.
Once you go the projector path, there will be no turning back. Like geforce1999, 60" is indeed very small if you ask someone with a projector. I have seen many projectors setup. Average size is 92" - 106".
dirtrun, congrats on the new JVC baby! There is a unit on demo in HN, Ikano. Very good PQ for the price. How much that you paid for?

I think lyn attracts a different kind of crowd that's why. As htkaki put it, pj requires a different setup that the posters here r not willing to do. Its a different crowd.

In the kingdom of the blind, the one-eyed man is king

Because those who wanted to get projectors and the whole set up were busy working hard to making money in order to afford such projectors while others waste their precious time to open up threads asking why 'not many people open thread ask about projector'. Now those people who have worked hard have bought the said projectors and are now shaking legs in the comfort of their respective homes watching their favourite movies in glorious high definition while some others STILL insist on wasting their precious time wondering why 'not many people open thread ask about projector'.

Getting Started

it's th trend nowadays to go for the slim tvs over projector. this is just a trend, whatever u want to use is up to u. and projector is not obsolete. plasma is obsolete.
some people need holes drilled into their heads...
anyway, the lowew cost of LCD screen nowadays comapred to years ago make it a suitable replacement for projectors especially when the owners do not have much need for anything bigger than 60" or do not want to deal with cumbersome, short-lived, and expensive projector lamps.

Comprendo senor?Nothing wrong in opening a thread like this and this does not prove that TS is not hardworking. Perhaps he wanted to surver the market before he can purchase it.
