I am just confused what you are talking about with the Bill Simon campaign's use of video.....could you explain more what you are talking about there and how it has relevance to us?
Also, what is the difference between a projector and plasma TV?
Thanks...I think I am somewhat beginning to understand your points somewhat...lol. I like technology, so I don't know why I was so out of the loop here.
Re: Simon Campaign-
The regular media TV/Radio types were trying to ignore conservative protestors against the Davis regime. A guy named DennisDavid or DavidDennis (i forget the guy's login name) showed up on this site with homemade newsreports on the Freeping being down to protest Davis' nefarious conduct.
No media outlets were carrying the messages.
But, because of this one guy's heroic attempts to record history in the making, he created the only on-line record of protests against Hillary Clinton/Gray Davis during the recent governor's campaign.
When the media shuts down communication by attempting to set an agenda for us, it is incumbent upon Freepers to simply set into action a mechanism that permits us to ignore the TV/broadcast/print media leftist editors. Before the internet we could not even locate each other to communicate in print. However, now, with the advent of plasma and LCD technologies, the leverage of the ABC/Disney empires is about to crumble.
If we are like Jedi, the Eisner-esque CEO's are the Emperors. We need to overturn their control on our national agenda by using these websites and these technologies to set the agenda for politicians, rather than having our families negatively impacted by corruption in the media and in the politik.
Now, regarding projectors and plasmas, plasma TV is a direct view standard. Projectors are the units that beam out light to a wall.

Basically, Phillips strikes me as the Apple Computers of the TV industry.

The reason I like LCD PC projectors is that Windows Media Technology allows you to view mpegs, avi's, and other PC generated video files. In addition, you can plug in your video signal via RCA cables to the LCD projector.
That lets you view TV in a BIG BIG way.
Precaution: When using LCD projectors for video games like Playstation 2 or XBox, we have noticed that gaming participants feel a bit quesy in first-person shooters. The reason is that you are watching a wall-sized image. You feel like the video game is an IMAX movie and your brain is confused (seeing you walking through a scene but your balance sensors in your middle ear don't feel your body moving).
I had one guy have to quit playing James Bond because of feeling dizzy.
I agree with you. Bonesmcoy's communication skills is daunting. Many here are trying to figure out what he's trying to say. "14 display"... what does that mean?
