Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Oh, I was thinking G4. This link might help: [link] It says:
The PowerBook G3 Series (M4753) computers have a built-in connector for an external VGA or SVGA monitor. An included adapter allows you to attach a standard Apple video cable.

What color is your computer, sara?
sarameg - Nov 26, 2007 5:36:32 am PST #3556 of 25497
Kind of opalescent white (with the clearish finish on the case.) (I swear, I'm the worst computer customer ever. )

Can you find the internet?
Can you understand how to type in a URL?
Do you know how to cut and paste?
Have you ever spent months complaining long distrance to your sister that your new printer won't work when you had never actually connected it with your computer? Even after said sister asked you over and over if the cables were connected?
