You need an 8' TV for your DVD player... Prolux(TM) Announces the World's Biggest TV And It Sells for Under $15,000 01/07/98 PR Newswire (Copyright (c) 1998, PR Newswire) SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, Calif., Jan. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Prolux(TM) Corporation has done the seemingly impossible with its world's first 96-inch rear- projection TV, and has leapfrogged the best of the world's competition with what appears to be a slam-dunk winner for Prolux(TM), and the next TV sensation. The Prolux(TM) is also the realization of the 'convergence' between television and computer -- its debut will be at the coming CES show in Las Vegas, January 8 through 11, Booth #35616. "This unit is not only big, it has extraordinary picture quality even with the lights on," says Prolux COO Ron Holder. "With 180 degree viewing angle, 550:1 black/white contrast ratio and interpolative video line doubling. Watching 8 ft. (larger than life!) DVD is the nearest thing to an authentic cinema experience outside a theater I've ever seen. Eight foot computer, internet and video-conferencing is also a whole new thrill. For its great screen-size, the Prolux is packaged in a remarkably slim unit 3'8" deep at the center and 30" deep at the sides, so you can easily install it just about anywhere you want. The Prolux(TM) is, by any measure, a whole new TV benchmark." The Prolux(TM) also has all the expected new technology, including VGA, SVGA and XGA computer-input, DVD compatible and transparent on-screen menus. Ideal uses for the Prolux(TM) include home theater, conference-room presentation, sports-bars, software sales & development, engineering workgroups, entertainment centers, concerts, retail selling and shopping mall displays, restaurant/bars, training & seminars, arenas, churches, schools and auditoriums. Prolux(TM) Corporation is manufacturer of the remarkable 1200 ANSI-lumen WallZapper(TM)/Pro LCD projector. Prolux(TM) CEO Steve Wilson is known for his revolutionary advances in illumination products, such as his stage/film 'cool' light that produces the same light with half the energy, his cinema illumination design now used in most of the world's movie theaters, and his light-doubling flash design now incorporated in most US made disposable cameras. "Until now rear-screen projection TVs have not had enough light to bring them out of the dark alcoves -- they haven't even had the picture quality of the smaller, standard picture tube," continues Holder. "We've successfully overcome the many obstacles for cinema quality TV and video and high- resolution computer and game-station capabilities. Watching the Prolux(TM) is just like going to the movies. It's a remarkable product -- and industry first -- that truly changes the existing world of TV. "The new Prolux(TM) provides long sought-after computer 'convergence' for data, games, internet, video-conferencing, etc. It fills the last remaining gap in TV progression: the screen size. First there was TV, second there was color TV, now we have super-screen TV and this is the first one out there -- and we've kept it down to an affordable price ... this is major news!" /CONTACT: Joanna Gunderson of Prolux, 714-661-5400 ext. 234/ 06:00 EST
