Projector Value (or value proposition, or price/performance), is where price meets performance. The Epson definitely is selling for close to $3000. ![]() Of course prices will change thoughout the life cycle of both projectors. If you allow the full value of the rental card, but not the warranty (since both would have 2 year warranties), the difference would be over $600 at the time this is being written. Still, no matter how you slice it, the Panasonic is less expensive. Most will agree, that the second promo, while nice, isn’t as nice as what I originally thought. Turns out, it is a $400 Blockbuster card, and that extra year of warranty (which Panasonic sells for $250). As stated elsewhere in this report, however, I got the newest promotion wrong, thinking that, for example, it had a $400 mail in rebate, and $250 Blockbuster Rental card. This is due to Panasonic’s chronic use of rebates and promos, which I try to factor in. However, it was a tough call whether it belonged there, or in the same category as the Epson. ![]() I put the PT-AE2000U in the Entry level – $2000 and under category, where it took top honors, (and is the most expensive entry).

The first- through third-place winners in each of the categories are as follows: "This is our opportunity to show what our students are doing." "We put all of this technology out there so the students can have all the resources," Eisert said. The films were judged by a panel of six faculty members and librarians from across the campus. In addition, winners and other participants received a wide range of prizes - from iPods, printers and computer software to food, T-shirts and gift certificates. Second- and third-place finishers also received cash prizes, $200 for second place and $100 for third. The films, which could be no shorter than 30 seconds and no longer than seven minutes, were then shown. Eisert spent the first hour of the premiere announcing the winners and giving prizes. This year's event drew a record 23 entries. Everything we offer them - from the hardware to the software to the technical support - just really shows up in their work." The quality and the way the students edit them get better. "That's the one thing you can say about this contest. "It gets better every year," Eisert said. It marked the fifth consecutive year for the event, said David Eisert, educational technologist at the Digital Collaboratory. The top three spots in each category were announced during a screening at the Wabash 9 Landing Theater.
