I be look for a projector to use for my home theater as well as something I could rent out -lrb- to recover my cost -rrb- . about a week of research lead I to the x1 . I be originally look at the Epson Powerlite s1 , but after read several review on it about how pixelated it look . . most reviewer reccomend the x1 over the Epson . this lead I to start look at Infocus x1 review . I check around several place and here at Amazon as well and all of they be very good . as you have probably already read , the main complaint everyone have have be the `` rainbow effect '' . I probably would have never notice it if I have not be look for it when I get it home . you mainly notice it if you move you head after you have blink . I know this sound crazy , but that be when I have notice it . it be not that big of a deal and most of you friend that you bring over to watch a movie will never even notice it ! I have not get the screen yet , have to order it , but even on my white wall it look very nice even with some lighting on . it be much brighter then I expect ! I have try it with my pc connect to watch a dvd and also with my Sony dvd home Theater system connect up with s-video cable . the picture be about the same . I have order the adapter for the composite signal so that should make the picture even better . Hope this help ! I would definately reccomend this projector to anyone look for a low price projector .
