Note the size of the nearby laptop...


This is currently running through an s-video out on my vid card and into a s-video->rca converter and into my (new!) LCD projector. Oooooooh yeah baby. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

So - anyone else have any novel, incredible, or otherwise cool ways to play NS?
(If you play naked, PLEASE DO NOT POST A PICTURE! <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> )

EDIT: BTW - picture is kinda ugly due to flash washing it out.

    That is the biggest laptop I have ever seen. That gorge must be 1000 feet tall compared to that huge laptop.

    Now all you need is some surround sound.

    Of course there's surround sound. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
    We just got this up today so the speakers are on the floor. You can see the center channel on the DVD rack below the picture.

    Best part - Projector cost = $900 (after rebate). (Chumbo.com)

    1500 Lumens (tested at 1450 by indep testers), 800X600, supports up to 720p HDTV, s-video, vga, component and composite inputs. PC Magazine editors choice.

    If you have $2-3000 you can get a better projector, but for this price.... <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Id really hate to make you cry. Not to brag or anything but my dad sells projectors, we have a 6 foot screen in a totally dark room. (HDTV Projector, the RGB cables go into the same plug on your video card as your moniter plug so it looks perfect). The HDTV projectors my dad sells are in the $15,000 - $20,000 range.

    The speakers arr Vandersteen model fives ($14,000 pair of speakers).

    Oh yea, there is a subwoofer behind each speaker (Not sure of the specs).


    Anyways, If you play any game on this for over an hour you will be sleep walking for the next 2-3 weeks.

    Yeah these projectors own, I had one that i got when the local Hotel/conference threw it out(they thought it didnt work, only thing wrong was a bad power cord) it worked for about 6 months before the bulb went bad, Looked up the replacement bulbs, they cost 600 bucks, the projector was in the next trahs pickup <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

  • DenialDenial Join Date: 2003-01-08 Member: 12033Members
    I know a place where I could just walk in with a bag and carry three projectors and a 23" plasma screen on my way home. Being a nice and law-abiding person sometimes isn't fun. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
