Saweet… Picked up a projector for a steal… supports up to 720p… Watched The dark knight on it… looks awesome in high def (blu ray)… seeing as I dont have a TV in my room anymore i figured this would do nicely… once I get a real projection screen itll look 10x better… I gotta hook my cable box up to it tommorow (couldent put the video in full screen cause it makes it to dark for my phone) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v489/Shady195/09-33.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v489/Shady195/09-33.jpg) I used to just have my box hooked up to my monitor and switch between those ---
