Hi All,
My company will be moving to new office space within the next couple of months. We are currently working with an architect to make modifications to the space to fit our needs. Knowing that I'm an HT nut, this morning my boss asked for help in selecting an overhead project and screen. Unfortunately, this is stuff I'm unfamiliar with so I'm looking for your help.
The use will be primarily for Powerpoint presentations but they also want HT capabilities as well (DVD, VCR, CATV). For computer uses they anticipate the primary resolution being 1280x1024. Would there be a large jump in going to a unit that can do 1600x1200? What are some good, reasonably priced units that can accommodate our needs ($3-3.5k)? Going to $4k might be possible but would really be pushing the budget limits. Are there any units in this range that are widescreen or would we be looking at letterboxing? Am I even asking the right questions?
TIA for any advice you can give an FP novice.

[Edit]P.S. Oh yeah...if possible, they'd like something in the range of 1500 lumens.
