Adrian, you are very welcome and I had a really interesting and informative evening. I'd like to thank everyone else for their interest and help and truly believe the GS1200 has gone to a happy home. All the best.

Thanks everyone for the kind words - I might have feared one or two Voodoo dolls and pins on a less friendly board!
Jan - I wouldn't dare tempt fate by predicting that it will be the last projector I buy, although (having recently upgraded my Std 8 and 16mm machines) I certainly hope it is! I'm not someone who runs features every week, so it will take me a very long time to risk wearing out this GS!
John - the thought of HTI certainly would be tempting, but I think I'd better spend some time appreciating the 1.0, which would certainly be put 'in the shade' by HTI!

Craig, the way you used those words "...is very Elmo" - I just loved that, so I had to put it in my signature. Actually I didn't even catch that you said "focus lens" where it should have been "focusing knob." (I could change my sig if you'd prefer, though...)
Now, the idea of HTI in combination with a 1.0 lens... holy moly... If the GS1200 were a space ship floating between the stars, that ought to put out enough light to propel it to the next galaxy.
