The Panasonic one that already exists I don't have any interest in
replacing if it works fine. The one in Church I want to replace (and
relocate that one for use doing something not as important) and also
install one in Turing.

The projector I'm currently looking at as the sweet deal is...

The Panasonic that was sitting in the Hackatorium is...

So I would be up for instead installing the Panasonic in Turing (since
ambient lighting is an issue), and installing a newer brighter projector
in the Hackatorium. However I am unsure what the state of the screen is
there, if there are plans to move it, where I can mount this thing (the
old mount point/job was crap and I take partial blame for that), etc.
Much of that I want to know before grabbing a projector with a
particular throw distance.

Additionally this is all still plans that are a month out, and stuff
that we can re-discuss and figure out once we get there.

The thing I would really appreciate right now is just making sure some
power outlets get installed near where the projectors should/could be
mounted in either class room, and now I guess somewhere up high where
the projector could go in the Hackatorium.
