Can I use an XGA or SVGA projector for home theotre?

Question

I'm deciding on buying a projector. But there are so many different ones and I don't know which one is the best.

My budget is maximum $500-$600. I don't really care about HDTV, but I do want something high quality for moview viewing on my cable and computer.

What's the difference between these two, which one is better?

Answer 1

What you want is a better resolution so whether it's XGA or SVGA go for the one with better resolution.

In this case the XGA is 1024x768

and the SVGA is only a mere 800x600

Not to mention the Acer Projector supports alot more things in the way of data and video signals, you'd probably be alot happier with it.
