Once you’ve played a game or watched a movie on a 6 foot screen courtesy of a LCD projector, it’s hard to go back to a little monitor that’s only measured in inches. I Want One Of Those is selling an Alien Tech LCD Video Projector that’ll project a 6′ picture from 80″ away on either a wall or ceiling. It’s pretty meh, though, so here’s the nutshell… The downsides: Composite input, brightness/contrast/resolution all probably suck since they’re not specified, and it’s ugly. The upsides: built-in headphone jack and speakers, vertical stand, weighs 1.5 kg, it could be uglier, and it’s $268.20. Do the upsides outweigh the downsides? Eh, I dunno, but $270 is damn cheap if you ask me.

Pretty much meh, but damned cheap. Great tech if you are on a budget , don’t need all of the bells and whistles, or just want a projector for the occasional game party. I am in love with low-end technology.
I hate/love this website. This might be the 3rd time they take all my money from me.
I’m holding out for the laser projectors.
