Home projector
When comparing price to performance I do not think that this projector could be beat. I am projecting on a 120" Elite 16:9 from 19' away and we receive an awesome picture. Machine seems extremely quiet compared to some. Set up and adjustments were a breeze.

Biggest Bang for Your Buck
You can stop your research now, this is the best projector for you dollar. The most inputs, great lumens, easy to use and projects a great image. Our budget did not allow for a super projector, but it seems we got one anyway. I have never gone wrong with Mitsubishi. Beware the projector salesmen groups, wow are they salesmen, watch out what you sign up for on the net! Just purchase from Amazon and all is good. Another quick note, I went to all the big electronics stores, Fry's, Best Buy, etc. and this unit blows all their display models away, most did not have HDMI, the only way to fly in the hook up department

Good buy
The amount of positive feedback and price of this unit is what made me choose this projector for my living room tv.

I have this unit ceiling mounted throwing a 92" picture. I have it hooked up to an HD directv receiver, a PS3 and a laptop.

I'm very happy with the picture quality. It's plenty bright despite the fact I am throwing onto a beige wall and I do have 2 windows that attempt to wash the picture... yet it's bright enough I can still run the bulb on low to extend the bulb life! The picture is sharp and offers rich color. I don't see any artifacts either. I give it an A+

One thing I'm not fond of is how high the picture throws on the wall. I adjusted the mount to tilt down to get the picture where I wanted which leads to top keystone. I used the keystone adjust to fix the picture but I would have prefered this to throw a bit more level since keystone correction builds a bit of a light border around the picture. This doesnt bother me too much.

The only thing I dislike about the projector is its lack of drivers/computer support. All the other display devices I have hooked my laptop up to get recognized as display devices and install to my computer. I'm able to output native resolution as a result. With this projector it shows up as unknown display device and ATI doesn't have the right output resolution (1320x720). I tried third party drivers b/c they let me output almost any resolution which fixes that problem however, they caused my card to be unstable so I stopped hooking up my laptop and now stream content from the PS3. Wish Mitsu would put out a driver for it. This is the reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5.

Bottom line: great picture and good reliable unit. 92" picture for less money than a plasma/lcd = winner.

Mitsubishi HC1500
We purchased this projector mainly to show negihborhood movies, but have been just as pleased with the quality when showing in our family room. Pros - Crisp, clear, bright picture. Cons - very small zoom throw. I am very pleased with this unit

bright, great image, awesome value
It's bright enough for me to use with the drapes open, though shadow detail does suffer a bit. In a darkened room the image is fantastic. It's reasonably quiet. Considering the price, I think this is a great deal for basic 720p.
