<div dir="ltr">Hi Stuart, et all,
<div><br /></div>
<div>On the back of the computer in the front of the room (I think
it is a Mac), there is a white adapter from Mac-something to VGA.
Then there is a blue headed black VGA cable which connects to the
projector. </div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>Typically, we disconnect the black (blue-headed) VGA cable
from the white adapter, and plug our own adapters (as needed) into
the VGA cable.</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>There is a HDMI interface on the projector, And I believe Deid
has hooked his Chromecast to that port, and casted to it.</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>I hope this helps,</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>aloha,</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>Craig...</div>
