projection screens

[Lisa C. Childers]

Michael,

The screen material used at hpdc was similar, if not identical, to the
material installed at BU for their rear-projected display.  During my
recent visit, I found the BU display to be particularly impressive.
Perhaps BU folks can provide some detail about their installation.
