Hello everybody, I am looking for the best way to spend 2000 dollars and i know practically nothing about lasers. I have seen that "good" rgb lasers are way out of my price range but there are some chinese ones that i might be able to afford. The Big dipper f2000+ as well as the dj traximus TE dmx laser are both rgb's within my price range, but i had a couple of questions about them. Here are two links to them:

1. Would they be able to do simple graphics/texts and beam effects like fans, or would they be sloppy looking?
2. I read that they do not come with an IR filter and that this is dangerous. How hard would it be to install one? After installation is it possible to do audience scanning?
3. Beam effects are more important to me but i would like to be able to do simple text and graphics, would it be worth it to get a comprably rgy like a laserworld pro-300 rgy?
4. How hard is it to hook it up to simple computer software like "Fiesta" or other freeware programs? I think i need a special box to hook it up to my computer, but i'm not sure. What is the cheapest means of computer control?
Sorry for all the dumb questions. Thanks a lot for the help,
Joey
