Tommy
Boy?
"We have a web-based application that is easy to show off using
our PLUS projector. It has been used in demos and most recently in a
customer training class. I know that my usage is pretty normal.
However, one day I walked into our conference room, having been
invited to an 'all-employee pizza party' and to my surprise,
someone had hooked up the PLUS projector to a VCR and playing on the
wall was 'Tommy Boy'. People were sitting on the tables and
floor packed into this room. We purchased the PLUS projector for business,
but we also know that you have to have some fun at work. That
we do. Thanks."

Is
that Wedding Cake in Your Nose?
"We are a video production company. The most requested item
for a wedding rehearsal dinner is a compilation of childhood
photos and current photos of the Bride and Groom to be projected
during dinner. We download the pictures and music and then project
away! The PLUS projector is a quick and easy way to fulfill this request.
It is lightweight, compact, and is so easy to set up."

The Perfect Exhibitionist
"We have used
the PLUS projector with a foam board in a 10 x 10" booth at several
exhibitions to illustrate our products, show our software
running on a laptop and even show parts of my scientific presentations
if a customer wants to see details. We have many visitors
coming to the booth admiring the PLUS projector, and asking where to
get it."

What
do an Airport, Cartoons, an AC Outlet and Kids have in Common?
"I was stranded at the airport with my two small children looking
at a very long layover. The kids were tired of chasing the red
dot from my laser pointer, so I connected to the internet, downloaded
a few cartoons, set up the PLUS projector and my laptop and proceeded
to show cartoons. Needless to say, several parents loved the
idea!" E.P.

Life-sized
Light Saber Training
"My 5-year old is really into Star Wars and wants to be a Jedi
Knight. In order to give him the proper training and guidance,
light saber training is essential. The PLUS projector helped provide
the perfect training system that consisted of Darth Vader swinging
his light saber at the viewer. After the PLUS projector had projected
Darth onto the living room wall, my son generally became more
efficient with his light saber. All in all, another successful
mission for the PLUS projector. May the force be with you."
