I was just going to buy a 37" lcd. The Viewsonic from costco is 900 but then I got onto the projector idea.
It's only for my bedroom so it's not going to get overly used too much. But I still don't want some piece of crap.

Dave, what body did you get?
on the LCD front, the viewsonic is a great deal but the cabinet (frame) looks like ass. The Sharp at costco looks good if you're okay with 1080i.

I picked up a D80. I also have the Nikon 18-200mm VR with it.
I had my 70-300 at the airshow last year and it was a little short on range. 500 would be nice. You should grab some shots of the kite boarders one day.

if you put the 1.4x teleconverter with the 50-500.. that would be around f8 at the biggest? ... that's only useful in broad daylight.... 
but i guess that's when the bikinis are out

Yeah - it has to be pretty bright with the TC, but at 7:30PM and proper light direction, Im able to shoot at 1500msec at 500mm with f11ish if I bump the ISO up even just slightly. If I want to bump it alot, that will help, alot. So with the TC, I should have some room if I open up the aperture more.
The main thing I find is just to make sure the tgt isnt backlit.
