Sonnie....thanks.
What do you think of the Mitsubishi HC1500U or HC3000U?
for screen, I'm thinking Gray Screen, which I copied down the paint brand and mix from this site from i believe username wbasslet? Would that be good for my situation? Was thinking 102", too big?
I probably should have suggested the 1500 over the 1000 since it does have another 100 lumens, otherwise it's pretty much the same machine. I would not recommend the 3000 since it only has 1000 lumens and you said what you said about the 1200 lumens unit.

102" might be stretching it in your room if you have ambient light, but again, don't build or buy your screen until you've settled on a size. It may be that with enough brightness (lumens) that the 102" screen will be okay. I'm just concerned about you having some ambient light in your room... the larger that screen gets, the more brightness it needs to keep that pop to the image.
