So Budget - Best Bang for the Buck. I paid over 2K for the Panasonic 9 years ago. I'd like to think with the progress of technology, in 2015 I could get a better projector for less money. Even if I could get an equal projector with longer bulb life and cheaper bulbs, i'd take a look at it.

Projectorcentral is a terrific site, but I can't find any comparison to my Panasonic.

I have heard a lot of good things Epson.
