Topic:   Should I buy the Optoma EP721 DLP?

Hello forum. I'm new to projectors and looking for a good budget system for watching movies only, no games. (Sorry for the newbie questions.) So far I have the Pioneer DV-420V-K 1080p Upscaling DVD Player and surround sound. I'm looking at the Optoma EP721 DLP and so far the reviews look very encouraging. I plan to use DVDs or hard drive as the source, not cable. At about the same price, are there any other projectors that might better the EP721? What picture size can I expect to get with the projector placed 12 to 20 feet from the screen? Is it realistic to expect a good sharp 72" or 92" diagonal picture? What type of screen should I consider? I'm looking at the 92" Panoview DS-9092PM. I don't need an electric screen - just a simple pull-down. Will any good pull-down screen do the job? Thanks in advance for any advice.

Topic:   Using EP721 as Monitor.

I just purchased the Optoma EP721 for $369 (Ya, Good Deal lol). I'm using it as a desktop monitor as i speak, I'm currently pleased with it. But it's only good when using it @ 800x600. Any resolution above that doesn't look so great. I know that the native resolution for the projector is 800x600 so that's probably the case. So my question is... If i get the new Optoma HD20 (with a native resolution of 1080p), will it look nice @ 1920x1080 resolution for a desktop monitor? or will it just look all blurry like the other projector that i have.
