Using external display devices
Your computer comes with a built-in LCD display, but you
can easily attach an external monitor or television to your
computer if you need a larger screen.
Once you’ve connected an external display device, you can
choose to use the internal display only, the external device
only, or both simultaneously.
Connecting an external monitor is described below. For
details of connecting other external video devices and setting
display options, see “Exploring video features” on page 175.
