The projector I ordered several days ago on ebay at buy it now for $50 plus $20 in shipping just got here. Claimed in the desription that it just stopped working after about 2 years of use. Well I borrowed a lamp froma friend of mine that has a very similair model to my projector and it turns out that the bulb was just burnt out! This is a very nice projector. 16:9 aspect ratio max resolution of 1280x1024, a contrast ratio of 1000:1, and a maximum image size of 95in from a distance of 13.5 feet. Score!

you lucky bastard ;)

I find computer related stuff at garage sales once in a while with people saying that it doesn't work, so they give it to me to get rid of it, I change one thing (a powersupply in one that I got) and it worked perfectly. It's always fun finding stuff like that.

That happens to my teachers all the time... they call in the janitor complaining the projector is broken when it turns out all thats wrong is the bulb... or the things on fire. That was a fun day indeed.

Now all you need to do is pull out some lawn chairs and watch movies in youre backyard theatre.
