    For 10,000 I could probably get 2-3 decent 1080P projectors...


    But this one's big and white..it could be a racial thing...

    It's expensive because of the lens...


    "horizontal and vertical lens shift, keystone correction,"


    If that is optical keystone correction, that is awesome (though when spending this much money... couldn't you afford to mount it correctly?). And yeah you could watch this in full daylight with 5000 lumens.

    I did a quick search for projectors and found a Mitsubishi home theater projector that outputs 1920x1080 resolution and has 5000 hours of lamp life....with one lamp. That's on "low mode" which I'd imagine is fine for meetings, and this thing only costs $2500. I guess if you throw in useless functions like lamp switching you can charge $7500 more than other people do.

    Wait a sec here.


    Now is that 5000 lumen with both bulbs or just one? Cause if you need to run both bulbs to get the 5000 Lumen, this projector is pretty useless.

    Uhhh for over $10,000 I'd expect a little better than 1024 x 768, especially for a home theater

    btw who would get a 4:3 projector for their home theater? This is meant for business.
