your brother-in-law is talking about _front_ projection

Hi there

"Projection" TV can be either from the front or the back (relative to the screen). The technology to produce the image could be CRT, LCD, DLP or LCoS. The "flat" (don't they mean thin?) panels (LCD and plasma) are heavily advertised. But rear-projection LCoS, LCD and DLP are currently designed to look like a panel TV from the front, and are about 18" deep.

The advantage of front-projection is image size, typically 100" diagnonal. There's really no sense in using a FP for a 42" image. The downside is the need from controlling room light, i.e. do you have a room to dedicate to HT?

Regards
