Great for presenting on MacBook

This is the accessory you need if you plan to use your MacBook for presenting. The industry standard connection for projectors is VGA, so this is the adapter you need. Very few companies or organizations provide a DVI (digital) hookup, so this VGA adapter will get you hooked up 90% of the time.
Even though the image is converted from digital (Mini-DVI) to analog (VGA), the image looks great on a large plasma/LCD/screen. Too bad Apple no longer includes this adapter with their MacBooks, but the price isn't bad and you'll get a lot of use out of it.
What's great about it: Crystal clear output, it just works.
What's not so great: None
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is a perfect adapter for anyone with a MacBook laptop. Since the MacBook laptops do not come with a VGA or DVI fullsize output this adapter allows you to connect an external monitor or a projector.
You can use the monitor to extend the desktop for a much larger working area or just use it as a double display. It can support a 1400x900 resolution monitor. The clarity it produces is great and fast refresh rates are available. With this product the possibilities are endless. For the price you can not get any better. There are also different adapters to connect to regular DVI or to a RCA video or S-video source.
Exceptional value for a low price.
What's great about it: Small
What's not so great: none

If you want a simplistic way to connect your Apple Macbook to a large screen LCD TV then this is it.
What's great about it: Great picture considering it goes from DVI to VGA
What's not so great: Wish Apple could figure a way to connect from DVI to HDMI - maybe it exists but I have not seen it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not much to say -- the cable works as advertised. I used it to connect a mac laptop to my larger monitor.
What's not so great: All these types of things could be cheaper.

The construction of this adapter is poor as it is flimsy and be broken very easily if bent or moved often. It plugs in great and works like it should.
What's great about it: Plug n play
What's not so great: Flimsy construction

Upon my decision to break free from the Microsoft world, I decided that I would be using my old 1366x768 VGA monitor for my new Mac Mini. I was a little hesitant on purchasing an expensive premium adapter such as this. I know I've had had problems in the past with 3rd party adapters from various manufactures for multiple devices. I didn't want to risk anything and shoved out the few extra dollars for the Apple brand converter. Set-up was very simple. I unboxed the adapter from the box, screwed my VGA cable from my monitor into the adaptor, plug the smaller end of the adapter into my Mac Mini, and hit the power button on the back side of my Mac Mini. I was up and running in within a few minutes.
The adapter cable can be on the shorter end for a larger desk. But no complaints. The adapter displays a clear image upon my 1366x768 VGA monitor. No shadows or interference from my day to day use. All Apple products are high quality even down to basic adapters. I'm sure this adapter will last me for years to come.
My Best Buy number: 0599531602
What's great about it: Easy to set up, Made by Apple.
What's not so great: Apple Pricing, Short cable

I use my macbook as a laptop and a desktop. When I am at my desk I use it as a desktop. So I needed this part to plug in a VGA monitor. Its great to have both worlds of a laptop and a desktop.
