It sounds good to me too, I just didn't have anything useful to add and 
didn't want to post what amounts to "Me too!"

However, the fact that they are willing to stay open late for us suggests 
that it might be a very friendly place for us to be, and I say we check 
them out.  I don't see how the short lead time matters much; I don't give 
a moment's thought to where we go afterwards until about 8:50 PM on 
Thursday. :-)

We should ask them about that, and maybe give the projector a try on
Thursday.  Though, doesn't a TV have like a few hundred lines of 
resolution?  Or is it HD and I'm just dating myself?
