Lets see the breakup of PJ makes of the membership here.
Vote by the one that you watch as your primary viewing machine.
Not your favorite and not the one you wish you have.
Later we can break it up by model if there is interest.

If you have a Runco, please use the base model on which your projector is based. See this page for a cross-reference.

If you have a Vidikron, Madrigal, or other based on an Electrohome chassis, pick Electrohome.

If you have a Zenith 1200, pick Barco.

Pools need to be more versatile as some people need the ability to vote more than once, like for each CRT projector they have. Smile

I'm most interested in the One projector you think is your main viewing unit. Of the guys that have multiple units you must have one that you watch most often.
And if you have multiple Home theatres with more than one type of projector and watch them all equally....My heart bleeds for you and you must pick your favourite.

I had meant to put a "OTHER" selection but forgot and i cannot go back into it and add this after the fact.

I think you should have tried to find out actual brand. The Barco/Zenith thing is funny because only 1 Zenith is a Barco. Yes, 4 of us here have that one, but I'm sure there are some people around that have the other kind of Zenith.

You've already kind of implied to put the actual brand because you didn't put Runco.
