Ok, real question:
I need a cheap portable video projector for use on the stage. Needs to be bright enough to provide adequate luminescence for backlighting but it doesn’t need to be super high resolution or anything. it can be an old model so long as vga or hdmi is supported. Bluetooth and usb inputs are not needed. Any recommendations? Thanks. #videoprojectors #tech

Alamo Drafthouse blames ‘nationwide’ theater outage on Sony projector fail

“Sorry everyone! Sony is having issues with their projectors that is preventing us from being able to project movies at some of our theaters today.” Alamo Drafthouse posted that to social media sites on New Year’s Eve.
