Undecided as yet.  Most likely, though.

I have a portable screen ATM.  I'll fix it to the wall once I've
finished
the floor, got some carpet, and insulated the roof!  It's 4 feet wide,
and

We have 42sqm, so no problems there.  All I need up there is a cable
TV box,
cable modem, firewall, main server audio server, Tivo, VCR, DVD,
projector,
switch, and patch panel.  Easily fitted.
