Dear Anne, I used to have an InFocus projector here that I rented out for $150+ for 1 day depending on whether I had to deliver or it was picked up. If you're wanting to shop the price in the phone book, best place to look is under the Audio-Visual heading. One of the things you'd want to know in advance in order to get the right projector is how many people will be watching and in what size of room. You'll need a projector with more lumens for a larger crowd than in a smaller room around a conference table, for instance. I've sold my unit but if you are quoted substantially more than that, I'm still friends with the client and can get him to do this again. He has various accessories to the unit such as screen, remote, carrying case and more, if needed. Looks like you don't need this but if things change, feel free to let me know. Good luck,
