I just truned my 9PG on and the screen was blank. My HTPC was asleep so I wiggled the mouse and the screen came up with all kinds of wild, funky colors in geomtric patterns. It looked like one of ILE's LSD panels. 
There was also and ominous white spot floating around. I don't know what "spot-burn" is but I've seen you guys discuss it and I'm pretty sure it sucks. I turned the projector off real quick, waited 5 minutes and turned it on again. Same thing.
I rebooted the PC and everything is fine now. I guess the video card freaked out. Can a screwed up video card damage a projector?
For a sec I thought I had screwed up my nice, new toy.

I've had that happen a few times; what video card are you running, first time it happened to me on my Marquee I was about to cry (it happened about 1/2 hour after I plugged it in for the first time)
