I just realized I'm stupid for my mention of miniDVI, since only the 12-inch PowerBook has miniDVI, which at least up until yesterday, I knew. Not sure how that slipped out of my mind. So never mind about those adapter questions, and I see that an S-Video to Composite adapter is there as well, which is excellent.

Oh and I totally overlooked your response, Brad (posted at the same time). Thanks for that too.

Does make me wonder though... what real advantage does that "switch displays" function key on PowerBooks, then? iBooks don't have it. Is it really just a shortcut between mirroring and spanning?

Luca: yeah. I remember when the PowerBooks were last updated, back in January, I was thinking of getting the 15-inch, BTO'd to have the options I would want, but with edu discount.

Well, now I'm no longer eligible for the latter, but it's cheaper anyways.
