$5
I have the projector-only version, and I want to smash it to pieces, that's how bitterly disappointed I was. You have to have darkness so thick bats cant see, to even SEE anything, a penlight is probably brighter. When someone mentioned that the G90 has the all-white phosphor warm up screen I realised that this piece of junk does the same thing, an all white screen for 5-10 seconds or so.

I've always wanted 4 or 5 of those. Especialy the ones with the Betamax in them. Beta Rocks! Somewhere around $50-75 bucks is a decent price in working order.

If you go into service man mode and then hold the power key down for 5 seconds an option to set the warm-up screen time appears 0-20 min (at least thats how it works on my 1272)

It can't be too bad, it looks like it even has G90 styled handles on the bottom. Must have been built with G90 quality.

ADD rears it's head. Can't concentrate on your work because of Avon District Daughters surpluss projectors.
