if you have a giant wall, it's worth it. I had two, I forget how much the BenQ one I bought was, but I know the cheap ass one I bought at 75% off was like £300. Split between multiple people.
It was fucking awesome. Pure happenstance. My housemates were going to drive to a place with a supermarket and big box stores, and I wanted to catch a ride to see if there was some tech I could get. We did the shopping and I said "let's go to PC world" or whatever it was called. They asked me what the fuck it was that I could possibly get from there.
Liquidation sale.
Not a fucking bullshit "liquidation sale" with 20% off. "We're going to shut this place down before corporate goes bust because no one in this shitty town has any money" liquidation sale. We got a £1200 projector for £300. It was worth every fucking penny, as we watched films in the living room and threw cartons of finished juice at the wall in protest at the shitty films we watched.
get one with reasonable reviews at a reasonable price. worry more about how you're going to be able to set it up with proper focus and angle etc
