I might as well cut straight to the chase here and say that if money's no object, I personally would go for Panasonic's PT-AE3000 ahead of this Sanyo. Partly on account of the Panasonic's seriously handy integrated anamorphic lens adjustment, but mostly because I find its out-of-the-box colour settings markedly better and its presentation of dark scenes more dynamic. But if you'd rather save a couple of hundred quid to blow on a few Blu-rays - as well as getting a handy three-year warranty into the bargain - then you can rest assured that the Sanyo PLV-Z3000 is still a very talented machine. Albeit one that you might need a bit of help with initially if you want to get it looking its best.

You know, if they'd said this was a retro design, I may just have fallen for it.

Its like the old metal case slide projectors

Does it matter what a projector looks like? Ideally you want it as nondescript as possible so people don't notice it. Those super shiny blob projectors from the likes of Sim2 or Infocus always look like they have loads of wasted space inside. You want a projector as small as possible. Being shiny they'd also reflect the light and show themselves up like a disco ball.

Dull and sturdy plastic is the way to go!

This projector actually gains style points from me, for the above reasons and also more critically: HAL9000, anybody? Stop, Dave.
