1. The Eaton Theater is currently using a 35mm film projecter.
2. The dilema the Eaton Theater and other small theaters are facing is that all the movie companies are making a switch to digital film instead of film projecters.
3. The movie company that will definently be switching to digital film is Fox.
4. Digital projectors are considered cost prohibitive because they cost at the minimum of about $70,000 dollars.
5. The digital movie equiptment might cause the Eaton Theater to lose upwards of 20% of its annual profits because of all the money they would lose paying for the projector.
6. I think the best solution for the Eaton Theater would be to buy the projector and continue with the business because eventually it will pay off.
