[DM-MUG] Projecting from PB to TV

A lot of TVs anymore only have the F-type (cable) connector on the back.
Most don't have any RCA audio/video inputs or even old fashioned antenna
connectors (showing my age, I guess) ...

You may have to hook up through the VCR -- most of them have front A/V
jacks.

Apple does sell a cable which converts the mini-VGA port on iBook/PowerBook
to video (RCA) and S-video (looks like an old ADB port).  The cable is about
6" long, costs (I think) about $19, and mine works just great.

Hope this helps!


Peace,
CW
