[LM_NET] TECH:Projection system

[Robin Chandler <rchandler@IMMAC.ORG>]

My principal has just asked me to find out about a projection system for our 
school.  In the past, we have just used the TVators which allow what is posted on 
the teacher computer's desktop to be put on the TV screen.  However, several 
teachers now have laptops that are not programmed for the network and they would 
like us to get a projection system to make them more usable for classroom 
instruction. Also, if they wanted to use something in a room without a TV, they 
can't.  I have several questions---

1.  Does anyone have a specific projection system they really like?
2.  If it is to be used in an auditorium setting (I'm thinking Open House or 
graduation), and music/audio/video clips are put into a Power Point do these 
systems have speaker systems or is that a separate issue?  
3.  If the speaker system is separate, then what do you use?
4.  Can you get a really good system for a mid-range price?

Thanks for any and all suggestions.
