The projector is in my main living room and it still looks like a living room (part of me and the gf's agreement). I used a professional wall mount I picked up at circuit city and mounted it about  6 ft off the floor at an angle from the table, much like dr Nile's set up. It doesnt look bad, family have come over during the project and just thought i was mounting a movie projector (which if you buy a good mount you can use it for, the one i got can move and rotate anywhere allowing me to show movies one night and play d and d the next. The wires may be distracting, but a good wire protector and some tape can hide those. I toyed with the idea of constructing a moving one out of the boommike stand or a light support, but I don't want to set aside a spot at the table for hte projector. There are some notable things so far. 1. Shadows, at a distance, if you dont get the angle right whomever is on the side of the projector going to cast a shadow. I fixed this by moving my dm area opposite the projector to the side of the projector. This way i know where to sit to avoid casting a shadow. 2. Allso, the image is not as 100 percent focused as it would be if I dropped it on top, but the diference is not noticable unless you've seen the two side by side. Dr. Niles, where in the metro detroit area can i pick up 1 inch graph paper, I've tried blicks in dearborn and they do not carry it.</blockquote>
