It would depend on the monitor that you are using as an external display. If the monitor you are using has either a DVI, DSUB(vga) or HDMI connector then you are golden, if NOT, then you need a special device that tones down the refresh rate or you get a TV with 640x480 that looks terrible.
Generally a VGA to component connection would be for a Plasma TV and say a satellite receiver connection. I use my mac with my LCD TV and I have a mini-usb to DVI connector, and use a DVI to HDMI cable to hook to the TV. My desktop computer I use a DVI to VGA adapter and connect it to my TV, or I can use the HDMI from my mac with this setup as well. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Computer Tech Support" group.
