View them side by side and then you'll see my definition of decent. There
is simply no comparison. If you want to see fine detail in scenery,
instruments, etc., you won't be happy on a white painted wall.


I'm not talking about a white painted wall. I'm talking about a nice,
budget-priced screen. In any case, if the best you can come up with for a
definition of "decent" is "the difference between a $1000 screen and a $300
screen", then you haven't proven anything. You've simply chosen to define
"decent" in a way that tautologically "proves" your point.

I didn't even try to define it. I suggested how you could know it when
you see it. If you are happy with a cheap projector on a cheap screen,
then what is your problem with me not being happy with it? My standards
are simply higher than yours. Not a problem for me, and I'm not sure
why it bothers you so much.

Sure you did. From your post: "...then you'll see my DEFINITION of decent"
(emphasis added, since you seem to be having trouble seeing it).

I suggested how you could know it when you see it.

Hmmm...so we're going with the ever-popular definition also used for
pornography. Glad to see the subject treated so rigorously.

If you are happy with a cheap projector on a cheap screen, then what is
your problem with me not being happy with it?

We're not talking about what makes you happy. We're talking about your
incredibly vague and non-useful definition of "decent", and your willingness
to use such a vague definition as a basis for your claim of the minimum
price point for a DLP projector.

My standards are simply higher than yours.

Again, how do you know? Answer: you don't. You have no idea what my
standards are, or how they relate to yours.

Not a problem for me, and I'm not sure why it bothers you so much.

What bothers me are your proclamations of certainty, without anything close
to a justification for making them.
