    I will be soon teaching in a room that is approx. 20ft long by 15ft wide.
    The room has no projector and i have been given the go ahead to get 3 prices with a budget of around €400.
    The whiteboard in the room is 6ft x 4ft.
    It will be mainly used for demonstrating Microsoft office applications and only about 14 hrs a week teaching will take place and not all of that used with projector.
    The projector will not be ceiling mounted as it will be taken into storage each day.
    Will be using a VGA connection.

    Would appreciate any advice on selecting one of the following or any suggestions to a suitable projector from a reputable shop.

    All DLP projectors.

    BENQ MP515 Projector, €294, 2 Year Warranty and 1 Year Lamp
