[LM_NET] Lumens DC162 vs Avermedia CP300

["Beth A. Beckwith" <babeckwith@ISD194.K12.MN.US>]

Hi, all,

Have any of you had a chance to use or see the Lumens DC162 in action? I remember 
loving the clarity of text, sharp detail and color when I saw a Lumens visual 
presenter demonstrated at the NECC conference two years ago. In my opinion, it far 
exceeded
the quality of the others that were being demonstrated. However, when I put in a 
quote for one from a vendor, the sales person called me to ask why I wasn't 
requesting the Avermedia CP300 which is "incredibly popular."

As a former middle school science teacher, I really liked what the Lumens was able 
to pick up as far as detail when looking at small objects through a microscope, for 
example. However, now the sales guy has me wondering since it was 2 years ago when I
saw it and technology can change a lot. (I do like the specs on the Lumens.)

I'd love your feedback. I will post a hit if desired. Thanks!
