this be my first projector . all I can say be wow . I use this projector for everything . it be my computer monitor and my tv . I go from a 28 '' lcd computer monitor that I be happy with to this projector which I be thrill with . there be nothing like play a game and fight a 6 ' troll that be actually 6 ' on the screen ! my big concern with buy a projector be clarity and screen refresh rate . dvd , blu-ray , Netflix all show clear and beautiful . fp and online rpg like WOW and eq2 be all clear and smooth . there be no bluring , artifact , or lag from this projector . the bad ... black level . they be not terrible but at some time the dark or black area be a little wash out . this be in a totally dark room . it be also be project on super-white photo paper -lrb- diy screen -rrb- . for the lower cost of this projector and the longer bulb life I can easily live with this . also , text be sometimes a little blury . not a lot , just a tiny pinch . but it may not be the projector . clean the lens with proper lens cleaner clear some of it and I may need to look into a new screen or tighten my current one -lrb- it seem to be a bit difficult to get the DIY paper screen perfectly sag and wrinkle free -rrb- over all I love this projector . UPDATE : after 1044 hour on the bulb -lrb- 9 month -rrb- it go dim for a day then go out with a pop . Epson be easy to contact . I send they a email . the next day they send I a email ask specific question , one of which be my address . two day later I have a new bulb . Free of hastle , Free of charge .
