You use multiple computers to generate the video.  It's not going to be
commercial grade video by far, but it'll be quite good.  To do it "right"
requires about $50k in optics and projection systems.  I'll be using de-cased
15" LCD panels living atop 3M overhead projectors.  Similar abilty, 1/100th
the cost. :)
