Laptops (Windows and Mac)

  • Speakers using their own laptops MUST HAVE a VGA D-sub 15pin female output. Special video output cable is required for almost all Mac and some laptops to use the D-sub 15pin to connect to external monitors and data projectors. Please note that we are not equipped with the special cable and you must bring it in case it is necessary. The laptop output resolution should be XGA (1024 x 768). The higher resolutions than the native resolution (1024 x 768) would possibly lose some information or not project by forcing the data projector into a compression mode.
