[brac]

I have looked at and read all I can but since I live in the sticks I can't go see one anywhere. Both models are avail for the same money. Which one would you choose and why????

Thanks for any help, My walls are framed, next week I will close in, and I will have my first HT.

Personally, I went DLP for three reasons;
Absolutely no burn-in (even more important for gaming).
No possible meltdown of polarizers from heat.
No panel shifting from transportation.

Of course as a technician, I always look at things from a break and repair standpoint.

I think the 4805 will give better overall image. The 5000 has more resolution for HD, but from about 2x(screen width) back the 4805 will give a better looking picture.
