"Clueless Reviewer"
Pros: Cheap, ummmmm
Cons: Lowe contrast, slow color wheel, average color, loud, no DVI/HDMI
Summary: This reviewer does not have a clue regarding projectors. This is a business projector. It has a 2x color wheel and low contrast comared to it's competetors. If you are looking to buy a projector check out www.projectorreviews.com or www.projectorcentral.com and not this half baked attempt by someone who obviously hasn't got a clue what other projectors are available.
At this price get an Optoma H27 at www.costco.com and get costco's life time return policy to go with it.

As someone who has actually been a professional reviewer (and is an ISF certified tech) I agree that this review leaves a lot to be desired.
Sadly, it is typical of the marketing-driven reviews we see too often on Web and in magazines, primarily to keep advertisers happy.
Sure, it's cheap. But the light engine is a very old design, frankly not much better than was available in 1999. There are higher-resolution options in the same price range ? and frankly, getting all damp about light output ? particularly at the expense of resolution ? shows the reviewer hasn't been properly trained or edited.
Disappointing, but not surprising. -
I've had this problem with more than one CNET review where I had personal knowledge of the marketspace and other products available.
