The Eiki LC4000 is a discontinued model. If you decide to go with it, the
cables for both Mac & IBMs should be included for the original price.
The Eiki LC4200 replaces the 4000 and sells to universities for Appx.$4526.
Suggest you compare the differences.
Also, FYI, Eiki's projectors are manufactured by Sanyo. Compare equivalent
models from your Sanyo dealer.
Personally, I would go with an InFocus Systems #Lite Pro 580 or the Epson
ELP-3000. They are compact, light, use the newer polysilicon technology and
are bright. I've had recent quotes on the Lite Pro around $6900 and
somewhat less for the Epson.
There are many brands/models out there and the products continue to improve
rapidly. Ask for demos and shop carefully.

If you travel alot, consider using your projector with a laptop.
