    Here's my question:

	Lets say you had two projectors, one with 5" lenses and
    one with 4" lenses.  If you set up both projectors so the
    on screen images are exactly the same size and in the same
    position, would the ortho seat be different for each projector?
    If not, then the ortho seat must depend only on image size, and
    not projector distance.
