 I am looking for a way to project a Mac screen onto movie screen
 in a class room.  Until recently the only product that I knew of
 was an electrahome projector.  This projector cost about $3,500.
 Now there is a company in California, Comtrex LTD. [(714)-855-6600] selling
 a lcd system that sits on top of an overhead projector.  Such
 units have been available for the pcs for a while, but this is the 
 first one for the mac.  This new system, called Macnifier, is priced
 at $1,700.  At that price I rather go with the Macifier, however I
 would like to see one before purchasing. I have not been able
 to find one to test.  The company claims to be too busy filling
 back orders to demonstrate it.  There are no dealers yet, althought
 the company claims that apple reps will have Macnifiers in about
 45 days.
	Is there any one that has seen a Macnifier working?  They
company claimed to show it in Boston.  I would like to know
how the image compares to the electrahome projector. Any information
about Macnifier would be helpful.
