| I bought my Z1 back in April of 2003. I have it setup in a room throwing a 97" image about 12 feet away from the screen. The picture is beautiful for both DVD and HDTV considering its current price. I paid $1,400 back then and I thought it was a bargain. Now at $895 this is an absolute bargain. It is not the Z2 or the Z3 obviously. But if you are just getting started with home theater and you don't want to go spending thousands and thousands, this is the way to go. Also, the lamp has about 600 hours and it's going strong. I have heard a lot of people complain about short lamp life. Just be aware that the life of your lamp will depend on the following : 1. Temperature at which you operate the projector 2. Proper ventilation 3. Clean filters 4. Not turning the projector on immmediately after turning it off. 5. Use theater black mode 6. Do not modify the settings to change the fan to blow slower or too late |

| No problems encountered so far. Excellent projector. |
