I read all of the applicable threads on here but, with tech changes as they are, I was wondering if anyone can suggest a (modern) projector that fits my needs:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">No more than $750</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Distance from the top of my table to the ceiling is 4'2", with maybe 1' of extra space above my drop ceiling where I can mount the projector</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">I would like a display area of ~6' by ~4' (my gaming table is 8' x 6')</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">It'll mostly be used to project (all sorts of) maps for RP games</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">If it's possible, I would like to attach the projector to a mount that allows the projector to swivel 90 degrees so I can also project images onto my wall</li> </ul>I don't know where to begin. My first thought was to use this <a href="http://www.projectorcentral.com/NEC-VT700-projection-calculator.htm" target="_blank">Projection Calculator Classic site</a> to help me choose a projector. This site allows you to enter a make and model to see throw distances and screen sizes. Very handy tool.</blockquote>
