Since I had the luxury of running cable while the walls weren't up, this was easy to do, but even if I were going to run new cabling now I would put it inside of the walls. I had a drop ceiling installed instead of drywall, so once the cable is up the wall, it's very easy to run it across the room. I wish I had actually run more cabling to the projector (specifically RGB cable), and I'm not sure why I didn't except to say that it was an oversight and not a mistake that I would make again. If you can run cable while the walls are down, I would always recommend running more cables than you are actually going to use. Run everything that you think you ever might want to use, because it will be much harder to do it later.
