You used to be able to buy a laptop where the
back
came off the screen so that you could put on an OHP for presentations. I
have no
idea what the quality was like, but it looks like the idea would
work.

Andy,
You've no chance mate!
The LCD in an
LCD projection system is a totally different beast to that in an LCD
screen. I've seen allsorts of guff in my time like ideas to make a CRT
into
a projector, image enhancers and magnifiers but I have never even heard
of
anyone attempting something like this simply because it is not a viable
proposition.
IMO, the picture if you could see it, would be so
washed
out it would be un-watchable and that's if you could sort out the
physical
problems with the original LCD screen.
The best advise I can give
you is to start saving!
