    Great tutorial on setting up dual screens, starting with your Apple laptop to any other screen. also explaining all the options you have, along with the proper adapters to complete it, along with how to operate it all. gentleman leaves nothing to chance. In my case a family member ruined her screen, (black screen) Set up the dual screen and was able to back up the data she needed by using the second screen before I dropped the unit off to be fixed.
