Gary builds a home made projection screen tv thing...

So, I got to experiance one of those do-it-your self projection screens this weekend. Sarah's Dad built one for about $50. it's pretty cool and makes you want a really big TV. We watched a couple family guys, checked out some snippets from other DVD's and palyed some PS2. He has a better LCD screen waiting for some cables and he will run the dvd's and stuff through a laptop for better color and resizing control. For now the contrast is either to bright or to dark for the PS2, at least for SSX3, DDR played just fine. The family guy was a bit washed out. The new screen and color control should make it fine. I guess the only bad thing is that the room has to be pretty dark too. Here are some pics.
