I am thinking of buying a new iBook. I need it to make presentations using a projector. Will the projected image be of adequate quality for a critical audience? Also I don't understand the difference between mirroring and dual display which apparently the PowerBook can do but not the iBook.



I read that the iBook can do 75Hz refresh rate with RGB output - does this have a detecatble flicker or is it OK?

    the iBook displays at a native 1024x768, which is as high as most projectors will go.



    you want mirroring when you're doing a display, so you can see the projected image on the laptop as well as being projected to the screen.



    the iBook is a great machine for presentations.



    i''d actually like to hear from powerbook owners who have the unusual screen sizes, how well to projectors take those?

    I watched Phantom Menace on a projector from a PowerBook and I didn't see any problems.
