i stayed out of this thread more or less; but i just have to post.
i have a 96" screen that i bought off of a friend, and i bought an optoma hd200xlv from costco for 1200 iirc. i hooked up my old sony receiver and my new polk front and centre, and my old infinity sub and speakers as surrounds. i have been using this to watch movies, and it is awesome for that. then i hooked up the hdpvr for the super bowl. i left the hd connected just so that i could watch the hockey game tonight (flames v ducks).
i cannot believe how absolutely amazing this is. sure...the super bowl was great, but the things that you can see on the big screen...literally, from where i sit in the basement, the players are the size that i would expect them to be if i was sitting where the camera sits for the game.
i am really really really happy with this setup.
i just had to post that for those that might be on the fence.
