Hi friends,

What is the exact name of that white cable to connect my MacBook (new, multi-touch version) to a video projector? I see this site, but I'm not sure which one I need.

Thanks! :)

It depends on the projector. You'll either need the Mini-DisplayPort--> VGA or DVI. Whichever the projector has. From there, you'll need either a VGA or DVI cable to go from the adapter to the projector.

depending on the projector, you'll need either a "minidisplayport to VGA adaptor" or "minidisplayport to DVI adaptor". most projectors i have seen/used are VGA.
