If you had to pick only one projector and you were married err stuck with it which one would it be?

Keep in mind married to it good times and bad. $$$$

Attempt #2 because too many people own a cine 9

The LCoS machines (in particular the JVC ones) are most appealing to CRT guys. Since it is about the only "other digital" tech, you probably should have just made that option something like "LCoS (D-ILA/SXRD)"

Why even add the 8 inch sets? no one is going to actually prefer an 8 inch over a 9 inch.

I have a small second room and I'm thinking of a 40" direct view CRT set. That would be sweet.
