Recommendation for a projector to display powerpoint presentations with a lot of pictures. Currently have an Infocus DLP640 but pictures are real grainy and colors are terrible. Have a budget of $4500 to work with. Laptop used for display is Macbook Pro with Nvidea Gforce 9400 video card. Conference room is 40 x 40 feet and light controlled. Screen is 9.5 feet wide and projector currently setup 16 feet away but can be moved easily.

I'll tell ya what, that budget is huge for your needs. In that price range you could almost project outdoors or in an auditorium (not quite, but you know what I mean). I'd go for one of these:

this has 2 brightness settings, both of which would be enough for indoor lighting, the resolution is also not bad.

out of these two I'd take the NEC

Your other option is to go high def, which would make sense if you think the pictures are grainy. check out this one:
