No, they are not. VGA resolution is nowhere enough today. The contrast is dismal too.

It reads like the specs of an ancient data projector.

Given you can get a used Infocus 4805 for under $250, anything over $100 for those specs is too much.

Probably anything at all now I think about it.

I would say no as well; compared to even the budget projectors

Run, don't walk away from this one.

if this is correct vga is good


1) HDMI/DVI (same exact quality)
Both of these connections are identical except that HDMI supports audio. DVI is rectangular and has lots of pins, HDMI is small and trapezoidal. They're literally same. Digital data (basically .BMPs) are carried to your display where they are converted to analog. Literally 0 signal degredation.

2) VGA
Typically uses 5 signal leads. This is the analog connection for monitors. One holds the red data, one the green, one the blue and the other two hold synchronization data in analog format. Is digitized by some types of displays and not by others.

3) Component
Typically uses 3 signal leads. This looks like a red, green, and blue-colored version of composite. One holds the luminance (total brightness) and a synch, one holds the (red - luminance) data, and one holds the (blue - luminance.) The display uses simple math to determine the missing luminance (which is necessary green data,) and convert the image into RGB (which is what VGA already has.) Note that this only has 1 synch while VGA has 2.

4) S-Video (Y/C)
Typically uses 2 signal leads. S-Video, S-VHS, Y/C, whatever you call it. This is the strange connection a circular head and pins. The highly underrated signal carrier. Uses two leads. One holds the luminance (total brightness,) and the other holds both the (red - luminance) and the (blue - luminance.) I can't remember which line holds the synch, but it doesn't really matter. Y/C is the first on this list which cannot support resolutions other than standard definition (480i/576i.)

5) Composite
Typically uses 1 signal lead. The most common connection for standard definition video. This is the one yellow wire you always get. This carries the luminance (overall brightness,) sync pulses, and color all in one cable. Really terrible, in my opinion.

6) R/F
Typically uses 1 signal lead. Channel 3 or channel 4? This is the sharp, old-school connection your NES probably used and the one you probably still use (though typically in digital mode) for your TV connection assuming you don't have satellite. This smushes sound, luminance, and color information all into one cable and frankly looks absolutely horrible especially since the modulators in the little MadCatz or Pelican R/F adaptors are worthless.

VGA is a connection. It is also a resolution. Not a very high resolution.

These are great specs for a $25 projector. WHy don't you tell us how much you want to spend and we can suggest a few.

Dude you must do more research, a VGA connection is just that a connection and a VGA connection is actually capable of displaying high resolution (720p, 1080p etc). A VGA RESOLUTION (640 X 480) is a joke now days. Its actually less than DVD (720 X 480). Like others said, run don't walk from this deal unless youre getting this thing for next to nothing and will only be watching TV and DVD's on it.

ok I'll run. But before I take that fiest step.I have just one question.(please be gentle ) specs says It does 16:9 how can low resolution do that? or is i it fluff?....I'll just get that epson powerlite 5350 for 30.00 at the thrift store working w/lamp.thanks for the advice.

specs says It does 16:9 how can low resolution do that?

That just means it will accept that signal. An ancient TV will also accept a 16:9 DVD signal, but it's certainly not a native 16:9 display.

Now having said that, no mater what you get, you're going to be happy, having graduated from a Zoombox. The specs of the machine you were looking at were state of the art only a few short years ago. But the electronics world moves at a breakneck pace. Certainly you do not have to buy a top notch projector today to enjoy it. We just finished watching Ratatoille on an Optoma Movietime, a 480P projector with built-in speakers and DVD player. Absolutely no one complained.

Enjoy whatever you end up purchasing.
