Projectors burn out too easy, I'd get a 42" or bigger HDTV 1080P like me

all of my ps3 games recommend 720p (i do not have 1080p.. i only have up to 1080i). i guess 720p is better for the games. my hd channels comes in at 1080i. would 720p be better for those too?

I SO dont give a rat's patooty about electronics. I should, but I dont. Its kinda funny.
I'd rather stand in the driveway and BS with my neighbors. In fact, I'd rather play Legos with my kid or go skateboard than stare at the TV.

I guess not, lol. A lot of cars were at the BMW meet thing tonight. Basically a whole section of the mall parking lot was filled with all types of cars there to show off their stuff

Anyone here that has cleared out their headlights? I would like to do it this week before I go to LA. I will be there on assignment sort of, I will be taking pictures for SROMagazine.com I will also be showing my car at the Nor Cal vs. So Cal JDM Theory meet maybe not sure yet. If not I will be parking my car at the Speed Element Tent probably showing off my not so blinged out ride.

I have to admit after tonight I feel pretty good about my car. I got some good comments about it, and it seems that my car is to a lot of peoples liking Not many WRX/STi's out tonight. I did however meet a lady STi driver whom owns a Ltd STi UGM in color. Hopefully she will register and chat with us any now and then.

Off I go, see you guys around.

sounds like a good event gio. ill have to trek out there at some point. i dont have much to show off, but it would be cool to see what others have done. how long does the meet last? i was stuck @ work tonight.

then again, i guess some ppl appreciate the stock sti look. i was pulling out from a parking lot and was stopped in the richmond dist tonight by about 10 kids asking tons of questions about the car. it was kinda cool. it's been awhile since someone said nice car. i guess it was made up tonight.

Okay another quick question.

Should i buy a projector for 600 + 50 for screen and hook it up to a vcr and use that s my tv OR buy a HDTV?

Im leaning towards projector because i can hook it up to my computer as well and its bigger even though the quality isnt there. I can hook it up to my media computer and just watch movies all day long with it.

projectors ftw!
