Meeting Projector Rentals

Meeting Projector RentalsAre you looking for a quick and easy projector for your next business meeting? If so, you should consider Rentacomputer.com’s full line of Meeting Projector Rentals. These projector rentals are specifically designed with business meetings in mind and may be the perfect solution if you need a projector for a business meeting and you don’t want to go out and buy a brand new one.

Oftentimes, small business meetings are set in closed and intimate settings and don’t necessarily give you a lot of free space. In situations like these, smaller projectors are ideal since they save you a lot of room and can project large images from very short distances.

Rentacomputer.com offers a cornucopia of projector rentals that are perfect for your next business meeting. Such projector models include 2,000 lumen, 5,000 lumen or 10,000 lumen projectors, large venue projectors, DVD video projectors, short throw projectors and even PowerPoint projectors.

Short throw projectors are perfect for meetings because they allow you to project large images from directly in front of the screen so your projector isn’t half way across the room. This allows more space for your audience as well as a more comfortable environment for everyone in the meeting.

PowerPoint projectors are projectors that are specifically designed to connect to a laptop or a computer and project your custom PowerPoint presentation. You won’t have to mess with any settings, you won’t have to adjust anything, everything is already primed for any type of PowerPoint presentation.

In addition to having a plethora of different projector meeting rentals, Rentacomputer.com takes all the weight off of your shoulders in terms of logistics.

NEC Adds Two New Professional Model Projectors to PX Series

NEC PX700W
NEC Display Solutions of America has just announced two new models to the company’s PX Series projector line, the PX700W and PX800X. These two installation models are specifically designed for large venues requiring exceptional brightness, such as educational or corporate environments.

The PX700W and the PX800X, boasting 7,000 lumens and 8,000 lumens respectively, are professional installation projectors that come with dual lamps, providing intense light output. In addition to that, the advanced input panels of the projectors  include HDMI, DisplayPort, USB Viewer and three separate analog computer inputs.

Both projectors offer Open Pluggable Specifications (OPS), which is the industry-wide standardization in option slots in order to simplify installation, use and maintenance while at the same time offering complete input flexibility. In addition to that, it  supports multiple input cards including an HD/SD-SDI and single board computer (SBC).

What’s more is the networking capabilities of the projectors include integrated RJ45, optional high-speed wireless (LAN IEEE 80.11 b/g)  and several Windows networking features, all of which allow users to connect to the shared network, control a networked computer via the projectors’ USB input and display multimedia files.

The PX Series stacking correction capability also allows as many as four projectors to be stacked vertically or horizontally to boost brightness up to 32,000 lumens. This is a particular asset for those applications where downtime cannot be afforded and where reliability is of the utmost importance.

Integrated Device Technology HQV, along with a high-performance video processing and scaling system, allows users to present with superior image quality using the technology’s pixel-based, motion-adaptive de-interlacing to remove undesirable motion artifacts.

According to Senior Product Manager of Projectors for NEC Rich McPherson, “Our PX Series is ideal for customers requiring advanced connectivity, high brightness and networking capabilities. The integrated option allows users to implement the projector in digital signage applications, which allows greater flexibility when planning an installation. The potential for the PX700W and PX800X to be valuable in lecture halls, training rooms and auditoriums is reliant on its professional-grade quality and multitude of included features.”

Both projectors ship with a 3-year limited parts and labor warranty and will be available sometime this month at an estimated price of $8,799 for the PX700W and $8,689 for the PX800X (prices are calculated prior to purchase of a lens). Education customers can also receive an additional year on the warranty and Star Student customers can receive an additional two years.

ViewSonic’s New PLED-W500 Portable Projector

ViewSonic PLED-W500 Portable Projector
If your definition of a projector is a big, bulky box with obnoxiously loud fans used to cool overpriced lamps that need replacing after every couple thousand hours of use, you might as well take the ViewSonic PLED-W500 off of your list because by those standards, this device doesn’t quite make the cut.ViewSonic is talking up the PLED-W500 as an ultraportable business projector, as well as a device that a traveling businessman would have absolutely no problem packing up and taking on the road with him for meetings or demonstrations.The projector’s WXGA 1,280 x 800 native resolution is perfect for detailed presentations and even though the 500 ANSI lumens output isn’t much to look at on paper, the clean, sharp image (complete with 6,000:1 contrast ratio) shows up well and clear enough to be used in diffused daylight settings.

The projector itself is rather small, only measuring 8 x 6 x 1 inch and weighing only 2.6 lbs. What’s more is that a laptop is also unnecessary as the PLED-W500 has its own 1GB of memory and is also capable of displaying a plethora of data types from things such as a USB drive or SD card.

Standard picture formats like PDF, JPG and BMP are also catered for, as is Microsoft office document and PowerPoint formats. Instant start-up and power down is also an impressive feature but that isn’t even the most interesting feature. What will really intrigue you is the fact that the projector runs completely cold. The 500 lumens are provided by LEDs that are rated to run for 20,000 hours, which is the life of the entire projector effectively.

There is a built-in fan that mostly blows out cold air so the device isn’t completely silent but the noise it does emit is by no means intrusive. Slides on the projector can even be changed via the remote control that comes with the projector and the remote also doubles as a laser pointer.

This is definitely the perfect device for any traveling businessman, especially if you want an extremely useful and well designed printer that is extremely portable and able to be written off as a business expense. You can purchase the ViewSonic PLED-W500 directly from ViewSonic.
