Screen gain info from http://www.projectorcentral.com/projector_screens_gain.htm:

"In conference rooms and classrooms where you want some lights on and most of the seats can be positioned within the screen's narrow cone of reflectance, high gain screens (above 1.0) can be quite effective in boosting image brightness. However, the videophile looking for the optimum image quality in a home theater environment will usually want to opt for a low gain screen (below 1.0)."

Screen color info from http://www.projectorcentral.com/white_gray_projection_screens.htm:

"Do you plan to have a dark theater room, with dark walls, ceilings, furniture, carpets? Do you plan to view with no ambient light in the room, just as in a commercial movie theater? If the answer to these questions is yes, then by all means your best solution is a white screen with a high contrast projector. The true videophile will go to great lengths to establish these viewing conditions-this is classic high-end home theater at its best.

However, most home theater enthusiasts don't have the luxury of a dedicated, fully darkened viewing room. Projection systems are frequently set up in living rooms, multi-purpose entertainment rooms, and family rooms that have light colored walls, ceilings, drapes, etc. Thus, even when the lights are fully off, the light being reflected from the screen will bounce off of the reflective elements in the room and back onto the screen. In this situation, a gray screen will be more effective at killing this incident light and thus maintaining deeper black levels on the screen. "

HDTV for 12 x 14 conference room - for computer?

First of all I am needing an HDTV for a conference room 12ft by 14ft. The first sitting chair around a racetrack table will be approx 3 ft from the wall mounted HDTV while the last chair will be approx 9 ft from the HDTV. My laptop that I am using already has an HDMI port built into so here are my questions:

Note: The primary use will be for power point presentations and occasional training DVDs or even web browsing. This will not be used by employees to watch Blu-Ray DVDS (hopefully!)

1) What size HDTV should I purchase?

2) What resolution - 720p or 1080p?

You need to quit being a homo and using yahoo answers.

- for a conference room 720p will be fine. Question is, most stuff these days is 1080i. So really it doesn't matter.

And you don't need a tv, you need a projector.

I would look into the dell ones since that I what I use at work for the exact setup as you. They have auto shutdown, more connections than you would need for hooking up to a laptop. Furthermore, they look pretty good.

The autoshutdown feature is nice because those bulbs get really hot and wear out pretty fast. Also, understand that you will be replacing a projector bulb faster that you thought. Our 2 at work are used pretty much daily and we have to replace the bulbs about every 1.5yrs.

You will also need to get a screen or build one that is 12x14.
