The Impact 256 dual-scan color passive-matrix projection system ($4995) features a wireless remote control and built-in memory that saves adjustments from previous viewing sessions. You can store up to 40 setup combinations; when the LCD panel senses the unique incoming VGA, SVGA, or Mac video signal, it automatically applies the correct setting to provide the best image. The NovaCorp (Rochester, NY) panel also has the ability to compress and display SVGA images of up to 800 by 600 pixels on the panel's 640- by 480-pixel display.

The DPS-I ($5995) from IntelliMedia (Benton Harbor, MI) is a self-contained digital presentation system with a Windows-based software utility. You insert a 3 1/2-inch disk containing your presentation, power up the system, and then use the infrared remote to control the presentation or add a
udio and video effects. Since the digital video signals are produced directly within the system, the DPS-I provides computer-generated images and full-motion video. Two internal speakers provide sound from MIDI and WAV files. The unit displays resolutions of up to 640 by 480 pixels.
