General setup and use:

The HD33 projector was shipped in a bubble wrapped lined box which seem to have held the projector quite well during shipping and arrived at the labs with very slight damage to the box. We used the projector off and on over a three month period and we did not have any issues with the lamp or the projector over-all. Doing a little research on previous models by Optoma, there are some posts about the warranty being too short. The Optoma HD33 comes with a year warranty and only 90days on the lamp which is standard across the board for projectors. We inspected the HD33 and were impressed with the simplicity among the I/O ports on the back of the projector.

The I/O ports on the projector include two HDMI, one VGA , two sets of composite to send your video to the projector which is great, but I would be willing to give up a composite for a DVI port though. The connections were plenty and with the included remote, you can enable the input quickly without having to scroll through input after input to get to your video source.
