Excellent info- spot on.
I would add that with the NEC LT 150 you would need to ad a HTPC, which raises the price, but still makes it comparable price wise tothe Infocus.
The LT150 would be visually superior to the Infocus, but more of a hassle.
The Infocus is amazingly plug and play perfect and easy.However--- THE INFOCUS CANNOT SYNCH WELL TO ANY EXTERNAL PROGRESSIVE FEED
IT has an internal motion processor that is very good, but feeding a video game system or or anyhting with progressvie video makes it choke a bunch. Mostly you use S video input.
I would tell anyone who does not want a hassle to go for it, if you are more inclined to tinker the LT 150 would probably give you better results.
Follow Ups:
Dan, I was thinking of upgrading to a DLP - until your comments about the video games not working well. I'm into video games (PS2/Xbox/Dreamcast/etc..) and this is a major blow against DLP. Are *all* DLP's videogame-unfriendly ?
Absolutely not.
Sorry for any confusion.
Teh incompatibility does not lie with the display technology (DLP, LCD, etc.) it lies with the image processing.
Basically the LP350 is designed to only take interlaced feeds, so the progressive signal from the Dreamcast make is choke.
A normal Dreamcast signal (not high res.) worked fine, as did a normal PS2 feed.
The potential problem is the rainbow effect, which is sometimes more noticable to some during fast motion video games.
