I was lucky enough to pick up an Apple Presentation System L TV Portable Pro today, and it seems simple enough to set up except -- there is a cable with one end labeled "apple" and one end labeled "vga". One end is supposed to go into the video out on the computer and one end goes to the L TV pro box. Now here's my quandary, "if the computer monitor you will be using is an RBG monitor, plug the end marked "apple" into the video port on the back of your computer, if the monitor is Apple Basic Color or some other VGA compatible monitor, plug the end marked "vga" into the back of the video port on the back of your Macintosh.
So which end goes into the back of the pb? The "apple" end? I've never actually plugged an external monitor in to any of my powerbooks, because I always thought that using the video out would disable the lcd display. I'd rather not have that happen, I'd rather have mirroring so I can control the presentation from my pb. I have access to a 3400, a 5300 and a 2400 that could be called into service for this task. Has anyone on the list used one of these? I actually wanted one of those clear devices that is used with an overhead, but this is what I found instead. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
