I don't think I've ever seen a laptop that lacked a VGA port (even the iBook). Usually the selection of output route is controlled by some "magic" key sequence (on older Toshibas it was Fn-F5) that interacts directly with the H/W. The only difficulty is when the capabilities of the screen and the projector don't match up and the X-configurations give problems.
