love that 'multimedia' buzzword. You want to project sound? print?

There is an ingeneos device advertised in certain magazines for TVs - a 
plastic fresnal lens you put in front of the VDU and it projects onto
the wall. You just need to invert the monitor - physically or in software.

I have seen computer output through real TV projectors, but it really
only works in 40 column mode - no good for you.

You can get LCD displays, like on a laptop, that sit on an overhead projector.
