There are also instructions floating around the net on how to make a DIY projector out of an old overhead projector (you know, those things in high-school?) and an old LCD screen. You pretty much just open the LCD screen, pull everything away from the LCD panel itself, and lay that ontop of the projector. Then, viola! A six-foot image on your wall! And if you can get the parts for cheap, could only set you back one or two hundred bucks.

Yeah, that's actually not too hard to do. Just get 2 graphics cards (unless your card supports multiple displays) and put a monitor on each one. Load the drivers, and bring up that box that lets you change the resolution. In Windows 2000 or XP, it's pretty easy to do. Then your 2 monitors act like one big one (or however many you have) I have this at home, and I absolutely love it! Oh yeah, it's nice to have your monitors be close to the same size, and for sure the same resolution. (it works if it isn't, but it can grow to be a little annoying)
I'm planning on doing that once I can afford it. If you used three of them it would fill up the sides of your sight, and hopefully make for a more realistic gaming experience. 'Tis but a dream for now.
