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

choose to use the internal display only, the external device
only, or both simultaneously.

For information on attaching a television to your computer,
see “Viewing presentations or DVD movies on your
television” on page 177.
