Wayne, yes it is normal.  Macs don't usually have VGA monitor ports on them.
You can probably locate a Mac-VGA adapter plug that will convert the Mac
video signal into something that the VGA monitor can read.  Otherwise, find
yourself a video card like the iX3D Twin-Turbo card made by iXMicro.  Will
be an eBay item most likely.
