Is this happening to you, Catmandu? I've heard that all lower-priced projectors do that with component input.

BTW, I have my eye on BenQ PB6100 and BenQ PB6200. Is that a good choice??
the thing about projectors is that there isn't a "perfect" technology. both DLP and LCD have come a long way, but each has their own faults... so it's basically a 'pick your poison' situation. whatever you choose, you should do a LOT of research first and never buy on impluse when it comes to projectors... there's too much money at stake. a few good sites to start you out:

as for myself, i'm very close to having my new projection theater up and running. today i finished making my screen... it turned out better than i imagined and should give me a picture size of about 113" with a 16:9 aspect ratio. tomorrow i'll run the wires everywhere and hook everything up! (and take pictures, of course)
