you can do it for under 300 bucks.. and for the most part its better then a $1000+ projector from like Best Buy.

I was going to build one those a couple of years back, but I never got around to doing it.

My roommate in college built one four years ago. Flat screen monitor, plexi glass, projector and a long vga cable to go to his pc and done. He bought a nice screen to hang on the wall, but don't need it a white wall works great. only thing is that dead pixels show up pretty big.
