Kal,
I realize this is irrelevant (for HT HD) except for the sake of accuracy but...Am I reading something wrong in regard to the stats for Barco's (Best/Worst chart), specifically the max bandwidth for the Graphics 808? Should it say 110Khz and not 75? Again, I realize either is more than required for HD use. I just stumbled across it and thought I'd ask.

Yup. Got it now. I'll blame it on late night reading. The only reason I was into Barco territory in the first place is I've had a Graphics 808 in my garage in a crate for a year now and just cracked it open. The printed manual that came with it is for an 800, but the top cover says Graphics 808, so I was trying to verify what I actually have before connecting a source to it.
Thanks for straigthening me out.

It should be pretty obvious which projector you have, shouldn't it? The 800 is an older projector - small, slim, old...
The 808 is a newer machine with a way nicer case style - ala Cine 8, or a small 909. Nice curve to it. Not to mention it's a way bigger, heaver, machine... A graphics 808 has scheimpflug, yes?
I didn't think the top covers on 808's ever had anything printed on them, though... so that does sound more like an 800.
Wait... Was that a typo? Did you mean you're not sure whether it's a data or graphics 800?
