They will never display 18 megapixels worth of image resolution. The Apple 30" Cinema display is capable of 4 megapixels (2560 x 1600). The newest "4K" HDTVs will have 8 megapixels of resolution, but it will be a long time before they are readily available and even longer before they are supported by some future generation of Apple TV.

The cable will depend on the Mac and the display; you might need mini-DisplayPort on the Mac end and HDMI on the projector end, for example, but it could be different (DVI on both, for example.) Use Wikipedia.org to compare the various types of video connectors to verify. Then use any software you want to view photos: iPhoto, Picasa, Aperture, Keynote, etc. You need a cable to connect between your Mac and your projector.

So are the Epsons. My favorite is the more expensive JVCs. My equipment info, including rack and acoustic panels, is detailed on this page: http://carltonbale.com/home-theater The Mitsubishi HD projectors are awesome for their price. So are the Epsons.

Otherwise, go for the cheapest model you can find. Brighter is generally better. Get one with at least a resolution of 1024x768. 1920x1280 is a wider aspect ratio than your photos and won't result in any usable advantage. For the best picture quality, calibrate the projector using a calibration DVD, such as <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00005PJ70?ie=UTF8&tag=carltonbaleco-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00005PJ70" rel="nofollow">Digital Video Essentials</a> or use a <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0037255LC?ie=UTF8&tag=carltonbaleco-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B0037255LC" rel="nofollow">Datacolor Spyder 3</a>.

I would like to buy a projector, but I'm not able to spend a great deal of money. Can you give me any suggestions about what kind of projector would be best? I would greatly appreciate any feedback you could give me. Thank you very much.
