re: What does the OT know about HD projectors?

Depends on how much light you have coming into the room. I know that my old Sanyo Z5 had a solid image with moderate light in the room, so I think that you should be OK with any solid modern digital projector (which all have higher lumen ratings than mine).

Really only an issue if you are limited in terms of how far away from the screen/wall you can put the projector. Or if you have a small room, in which case you probably shouldn't be using a projector at all.

The BenQW1070 seems to be really popular now and is only $875. There aren't as many options for projectors these days as there were just 5 years ago, so it may be a good one to look at unless you're willing to spend twice that.
