What if I want to attach the MacBook to an external monitor?
You can do it, but you’ll need to buy one (or both) of two $19 video adapters. The MacBook’s video-out port is the same mini-DVI port found on the old 12-inch PowerBook G4. Apple sells a mini DVI-to-DVI adapter, as well as a mini DVI-to-VGA adapter. You’ll need one of those to hook it up to the external monitor of your choice (up to 1,920-by-1,200 pixels).
