Projector fever is rife among the intrepid experimenters at THG! This enthusiasm is especially present on the part of those colleagues who initially viewed the project with a good deal of skepticism.

Many readers have sent us nice emails with a host of questions, most dealing with two or three key issues. But the main question by far was: which monitors can be taken apart easily and successfully other than the 15" Iiyama we used in our story?
