i heard that you can change/modify a small tv set 12" into a projection TV....it might not be great...but if you have a small TV it might be worth it to tinker around with it???....but does anyone know where i can get the kit or how i can do this??

All I know is, I wouldn't want my "family jewels" in the same room as (or anywhere near) this device! :hihi:

Urm... I think you forgot quite a few forums:
- AMD Realm
- Software & OS
- For Sale/Trade
- MLM, Referrals, and Spam Forum
- e.t.c.

You probably heard something like this (http://www.buildyourownprojector.co.uk/) place is touting. I doubt that your $9.95 would be a good investment.

If you get that Ebay one, let us know if it works out. I have seen that before, but forgot about it.

Basically, these things involve building a cardboard or plywood box to fit around your TV which is projected through a type of magnifier lens. Imagine taking an image that is 12" in size and then expanding it to be 100". As you probably guessed, the image quality will be terrible.

I don't know playing around with a charged CRT is not my idea of fun... Ouchie!!! Also increasing the brightness is not good for the phosphor and could result in screen burn in... Seems like the same could be accomplished with a funhouse mirror and some duct tape...:)
I am sure this ISF certified...
