The uber geek has landed.

Spent the last week sourcing cables and materials, Mounting the projector,building and painting the screen, setting up the Altec Lansing speakers.

And then getting my eyeballs peeled back by the pure visual candy.

This is just to big to go into a "show us ya desktop thread", The screen goes from floor to ceiling,measures just under 11 feet diagonal. Windows and webpages are perfectly readable, Movies are mindblowing, Games are just...outta this world.Also awesome for slideshows of the family photographs.

Anyhow, some pics, The camera didn't do the greatest job,and any with motion simply didn't work, anyhow, you will get the idea.

In your case you say it is "to small"

I can't figure.
