Slashdot posted a few days ago about building a LCD projector on the cheap. I downloaded the instructions and it looks feasible, if not down right fun. I was just curious on your guy's take.

The Download of the instructions is now available for free. The $20 gets you into their forums. I figure there's enough information floating around that I don't need to concern myself with getting access there.
