Don't forget the external speakers because the projector's built-in
speakers won't work well for a movie, IMO.

Barb,

Why are you tying up a laptop when a garden variety dvd player (less 
than 100 bucks) should work for you. We use Sharp projectors which 
work very nicely. How big is the space - do you intend to do full 
sound (surround) or just minimal?

Best,

         Ted
