A professor here has a price quote on a Sharp QA-1000 "computer projection
panel".  This is a 64-color LCD panel that works with a regular overhead
projector to display a computer screen.  It works with various PC and Mac
displays.  He has a quote of $4300.

Can anyone relate any experience with this device?  Any comparisons with
other equipment on the market?  Suggested vendors?  Other suggestions and
advice?  Will summarize...

This was just sprung on me today.  Personally, I would rather buy disk
space, since we have Kodak Datashow's for mono and do not have any color
Macs nor color VGA PCs to drive this thing.  It won't handle the scan
rates of our Suns.  C'est la vie.

TIA,
Chuck
