Where can I rent an LCD Projector in the Twin Cities?

Does anyone know where I might rent an LCD Projector for a weekend in the Twin Cities?

I run a Doctor Who meetup for Minneapolis, and our meetup revolves around actually showing episodes of Doctor Who. Since the pub we meet at has its own policy about showing media we have to bring our own A/V equipment. Our system is to bring in laptops, DVDs or downloaded files (from legal sources) and run it through a projector onto a canvas.

We have a a conflict this month in that both the gentlemen who loan us projectors are unable to make the meetup, and the other members that have access to an LCD projector aren't sure they can make firm commitments. We also have a fairly large group coming this month and I don't want to disappoint them.

So if anyone knows where I can rent an LCD projector that will run through a laptop that is located in Minneapolis/St. Paul or within 20 miles of the Twin Cities, I will be grateful.

I've used AVVR.com in the past for a big event and the equipment as real nice and the setup guy was great. It wasn't cheap, but I'm not sure anyone rents out the cheap stuff.

Best answer: Alpha Video and West Photo rent projectors.
