Newbie on here and am looking for some guidance on setting up a
computer to project multiple movies/slideshows onto screens in a retail
store. I work at a small retail (start-up) and we're looking to set up
a system with 3 wall screens and ceiling mounted projectors running
from a single workstation. We'll likely run either 2 movies (from DVDs
in the machine) and a picture slideshow or possibly 3 movies at once.
The wall screen sizes will vary, but won't be bigger than 20' wide.
We want a decent set-up, but price is a major factor.

Initial thoughts are that I could set up an XP Pro machine with a
couple of dual output video cards and 3 dvd drives and use XP's
multi-monitor features to split the signals and possibly software such
as Zenview Manager to help manage the multiple screens. What sort of
hardware do you recommend on this machine?
- processor
- video cards
- memory
- ??

As for the projectors...what is the minimum
- resolution
- brightness
- contrast ratio

And the cabling to the projectors? It may be as long as 100ft for one
projector. What kind of cable/connection?

Any suggestions on setup are greatly appreciated!!!
