    I'd hook up a Steam Link to play from the PC that's upstairs initially, but hoping to pick up a PS4 Pro soon so that would be added on the 2ds HDMI.

    And I will try ever so hard not to buy the Switch - but multiplayer Mario Kart on a pj is such fun!

    Very nice. I'd be looking at Gaming from my PC but also plain old Office work and possibly movies !
    Society's to blame,
    Or possibly Atari.

    Re: Forum Exclusive: Win 1 of 5 BenQ W1210ST projectors

    That would be Ideal for openTTD Lan parties, way better than carrying up my large monitor for the analytics. I'd have it setup to run on my Sony xperia tablet Z (Recomended to me by this very forum some years ago and still working fine might I add) purely because getting multiple full screen applications to run on xubuntu is hard

    Good Luck Everyone!

    Gutted! Great competition but for at least the next year or so I'd have literally no way of using (and hence reviewing) it! Maybe if you could run this comp again next year, then i will definitely enter

    Yes, please! It would get connected to my PC for gaming, but I'll give a try with whatever can be connected: the Freeview tuner, maybe even my phone

    Can you include the information about where it's being shipped from?

    I've never tried a projector and it'd be an interesting thing to play with. However, the import taxes here can be rather high - a quarter of the cost of the item - so I'd refuse it if I won and it turned out it was being sent from somewhere that incurred them. I'd rather not waste everyone's time that way.

    Gaming system? Probably won't be connected to one. But I do use a projector occasionally, and having a 1080p one with a short casting distance would be nice.

    In the old days I did use a projector to watch movies and play games (such as Trackmania), but I don't think we have a full time place for it in our home right now.

    This would be my first projector.. it'd be neat to get some big screen gaming with my PC; my kids would love to play some of their games on a screen that size!
