Help me choose projector and screen for new HT

[Schrute Farms]

I am buying a home with a dedicated Theater room. Its dimensions are 14' wide by 22' long. I would like some advice on projectors, screens, screen sizes, and miscellaneous stuff you think I should know, since its my first real theater! I'd also like some speaker placement recommendations for a 7.1 setup.

My projector budget is $2500-$3000. I have speakers, receiver, blu-ray player and two rows of seating.

1. Is my room a good size? Should it be shorter or wider? The ceiling will be about 9' high, the room itself is a perfect rectangle.

2. What 1080p proj can I afford? I would prefer to mount the proj from the ceiling, so operating noise is a factor. A closet at the back of the room will house the A/V components.

3. What screen is recommended for someone who wants a BRIGHT picture? The screen can be permanently affixed; it doesn't have to hide.

4. For my room size, what size screen is recommended? The first row of seating will be about 10'-12' from the screen.

5. What else should I know? What questions should I ask when I go looking?

Thanks !!!!!
