I love the way he reads off his patron's names at the end of the video. I love it all. I sat next to the guy (or at least was on the team at TI and his name is somewhere in the patent) who invented DLP on a plane back from comdex around 38 years ago. He explained to me that it was going to take over the world. He was right. It's still going strong and getting more use.

Some were ceiling mounted, some table mounted, and we had a couple of mobile setups. In all, we had over a dozen. The DLP modules all failed, with some not even outlasting the projector's first bulb. Things would go perfectly fine, until one day a handful of dark dots would be scattered across the screen. From that point, things usually degenerated quickly until the quantity of dark dots made the output unusable. I don't think any of them lasted beyond 5 years.

I'd had it for more than 5 years and gone through four bulbs. The current projector is also DLP and still going strong. It's on its second bulb. I only recently got it ceiling mounted; before that it was on a little narrow shelf in the middle of the room. Both are BenQ. Wade.
