Imagine it as just another TV. Depending on the inputs, you can hook a portable DVD or a computer or your cable box to it and good to go!

One consideration is also audio, so you need to make accomodations for that.

At Ms. Gogars we had a 'business projector' as mentioned and a set of cheapo multimedia speakers next to the projector. The projector had an HDMI input so I bought a HDMI 'pass through' box that seperated the audio out into a L/R RCA jack to the speakers.

It's fun! These small-format projectors aren't usually very bright so you need to turn off your porch light or something. You could find a really bright one but it'll cost you.
